“A gentle walk through other people's lives via their shoes”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 3 September 2012 via mobile

I enjoyed this tiny museum, it is unpretentious and has a great range of shoe design. not so many from more recent times but hey we can go to plenty of shoe shops and web sites for them...the attendant was the sweetest man who was happy to talk about the exhibits, he didn't speak English but we managed to communicate...

2 of 5 stars Reviewed 19 July 2009

Well, that's all it was. I paid the 2,50 Euro only to find that the display was all in one relatively small room. I... More
