Visiting the Museum
We are open Thursday-Sunday, 10:30am-5pm. Last admission is always at 4:15pm.
Average length of a visit is usually ~45 minutes, although visitors are welcome to stay for longer!
When you visit, you will see that at our entrance we use a traffic-light system to manage visitor flow up and down the stairs. If you arrive and the light is red, please wait until it changes to green.
Tickets can be purchased via walk-in on the day, or you can book them in advance here:
