Accessibility

On this page, you’ll find information about accessibility. Do you have questions about your visit? Get in touch with us. We’re happy to help.

Visiting with a wheelchair

Visiting with a wheelchair

Visiting with a wheelchair, mobility scooter, or stroller? You can easily explore the entire museum park. The paths are wide and semi-paved, and all historic buildings are accessible. Please note that you may encounter the occasional bump or uneven surface.

Parking

Arriving by car? Accessible parking spaces are available near the entrance. On quieter days, you can also be dropped off directly at the museum.

Accessible toilets

An accessible toilet is available in the park’s sanitary building. You can find its location on the map by looking for the wheelchair symbol. There is also an accessible toilet inside the museum building.

Lift to the auditorium

All areas in the museum building are located on the ground floor, except for the auditorium, which is on the first floor and can be reached by platform lift. If you would like to use the lift, please let us know in advance so that a member of staff can assist you.

Wheelchair loan

Need a little extra support? A limited number of wheelchairs are available to borrow at the museum. Unfortunately, they cannot be reserved in advance.

Visual impairment

The museum is well-suited for visitors with a visual impairment. Many of the stories throughout the museum are brought to life through personal encounters and sound.

Audio tour

An audio tour is currently not available. We hope to offer it again in the future.

Assistance dogs

Your assistance or guide dog is, of course, welcome. Other dogs are also allowed in the museum, provided they are kept on a leash. Please note that dogs are not permitted inside the exhibition or the introductory show.

Low-sensory moments

Looking for a quieter time to visit the museum? Outside of school holidays, the museum park is often calm from Tuesday to Friday after 14:00.

If you need a quiet moment, there are several benches along the route where you can take a break. Outside the museum building, you’ll also find a bench set a bit further away from the hospitality area, where it is usually quieter.

We are also happy to inform you about parts of the museum that may be more stimulating.

Intro show

The introductory show uses light and sound. This may be intense for visitors with epilepsy or sensitivity to stimuli. Feel free to skip the show or prepare accordingly.

Workshop

The Workshop is a lively space where visitors work and explore. This also means it can sometimes be busy and noisy. If you are sensitive to sound, it may be helpful to bring earplugs.
