Plan your visit ↗

Taking a fresh look at familiar images

Festive objects can bring back memories, but can also raise questions about change. On a future visit, look at the dating and the explanation. What seems familiar need not have been used in the same way in every period.

A yearly theme

The museum works with themes and a trail for children. A previous year’s programme is no guarantee for the next opening. Check which exhibition is announced and what age the activities are suitable for.

Waiting for the new dates

For current information, the general website refers to its own Facebook page. Base your planning only on an announcement for the correct year. Old November dates can easily be mistaken for a new schedule.

Before you go

The visiting days for 2026 have not yet been confirmed; follow a current announcement for the year.
