  • Download the AUDIOGUIDE: App Store and Google Play.

  • Because of the historic nature of the buildings, the museum is unfortunately not wheelchair accessible. We apologise for any inconvenience this may cause.

  • Please note that there are steps of varying heights throughout the museum, which may also be slippery in places.

  • Movement between the towers requires going outdoors, so we recommend dressing appropriately for the weather.

  • For safety and comfort reasons, the museum visit is not recommended for visitors with a fear of heights or for those who have difficulty using stairs.

BASTION PASSAGES

  • The Bastion Passages can be visited on your own, independently, without a special tour. On the other hand, you can book a guided tour of the spot.
  • Please note that temperature in the passages is 10-12 °C throughout the year, so please dress appropriately!
  • We do not recommend taking children under the age of 7 to the Bastion Passages. It is also not recommended to visit the passages for people who are afraid of closed spaces, have limited mobility, or have balance disorders or dizziness.
  • Be careful on the stairs, the steps have uneven height and can be slippery!
