  • You have to visit this place when you have the chance. It’s lovely experience, you can walk through the whole house by yourself just with an audio guide. We paid a little extra money and enjoyed...

  • This place is an incredibly well preserved time capsule with an amazing collection of items that belonged to the family. You can literally feel the history here. The museum offers an “electronic guide” in English and some other languages. Absolutely recommended if you're interested in photography!
  • Thrilled to visit this house. Myself an amateur photographer and having found my grandhads old negatives and restoring them, i loved the opportunity to see all of this history so well preserved. A great tour with audio guide, very nicely set up, there is so much history here. I would love to come back and book a photoshoot.
