Description of the Facility

The museum is partially accessible. From the parking lot to the park in front of the building, there are stairs, and for those with mobility impairments, access is only possible via the local road without a paved sidewalk. The park in front of the building has gravel paths. On the right side, there is also an outdoor event space, which is again only accessible via stairs. The building has a ramp at the entrance, which is narrow and lacks a handrail. On the ground floor, the ticket office is located in the back room on the right. The path to it is marked, but otherwise not easily noticeable. There are also non-adapted restrooms and an elevator that allows access to higher floors. Exhibition spaces are generally spacious and well-lit. Occasional height differences in the form of high thresholds appear between rooms. On the top floor, there is also a small hall with movable seats. There are no hearing loops in the building.
