The museum's official visitor page was checked October 27, 2026. Published hours, base admission and closure during exhibition changeovers are important before travelling. The English 'Current Exhibitions' listing still includes shows ending in 2025, so it cannot establish what is on view in October 2026. Confirm active shows and ticket types with the operator before visiting.
