  • You may not touch the objects on display under any circumstances, unless there is a notice explicitly stating that this is permitted.
  • You may not take a rucksack or bag larger than A3 size into either of our museums. Both museums have lockers where you can leave your bag.
  • Coats, jackets etc. should be hung in the cloakroom; you may not carry your coat or jacket in the museum. 
  • Small bags that are not held in the hand should be carried on the front of the body, and held close.
