UIRS accessibility assessment
Description of the facility
The museum is poorly accessible. A movable ramp on a narrow sidewalk in front of the entrance can be used to access the ground floor. The sidewalk does not have a set-off in front of the entrance.
There is a reception desk on the ground floor along with part of the exhibition area. The upper floor is only accessible via stairs on the inside. Wheelchair users can access it via a separate entrance at the back of the building. A temporary ramp installed at the side entrance can be dangerous due to the lack of side edges.
