Hmm... I'm not sure anything I've done really qualifies as a niche museum. Most of the museums I've been to are either in well known city centers, are popular tourist destinations, or are a regular part of the local landscape, like any battleground around here (which usually dates to the US Civil War). Or it's not a museum, it's just a still functional monument that allows tours lol The most I can think of is Lacock Abbey, which is in Lacock, Wiltshire, England, where they filmed a lot of scenes for the Harry Potter films and some of the "Pride and Prejudice" 1995 miniseries. The inside has a lot of historical art and artifacts, and is quite neat.
The other one is Giverny, in France, where Claude Monet lived. We actually weren't planning to go that one - it was a "random" add-on to a trip to Versailles - and it ended up being our favorite part of our trip lol The house itself is a museum of sorts and the paintings inside are, I believe, reproductions from lots of different artists. The garden itself is still cared for, and quite gorgeous.
