If you prefer to visit the Museum in silence and without flashing images, come visit us on the last Sunday of each month during the last 2 hours of the exhibition's opening - according to the Museum's website.

That's when we have "quiet visiting hours" and turn off movies and recordings.

Some rooms are darker than others. In some places the showcases with exhibits are under glass in the floor - you can stand on them, it's safe.

The most valuable memorabilia is presented in glass cases. When you lean against or touch them you set off an alarm.

Most of the time your stay at the museum lasts about an hour, but you can visit the exhibition for longer or shorter. If you want to rest or stop for a while, seats have been prepared in some halls.

In some rooms there are poles with thick ropes hanging down. Stay in front of them.

There are elevators in the museum. One of the elevators makes a loud sound as it goes down.

After visiting the museum, you can enter the store. You can buy books and souvenirs there. You can pay with cash, card or bliq.

From the store you enter the checkroom. There are toilets on the left.
Next to the checkroom is the exit from the Museum.

If you are disturbed by the sounds or if you want to avoid a large number of visitors, visit us on the last Sunday of each month during the last 2 hours of the exhibition opening.

That's when we have "quiet visiting hours" and turn off the multimedia.
