Walk-in tickets are available on the door. However please let us know in advance if you are bringing a group of 10 people or more.
Occasionally we must close the Museum at very short notice due to staff shortage. We encourage you to check our website before your visit and apologise in advance for any inconvenience caused.
Planned Closures
Please note that the Museum will close slightly earlier than usual at 15:30 on 20 March 2026 for a private event, so the last museum admission will be at 14:45. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause and thank you for your understanding.
