On Saturday 12th of March 2022 we enjoyed a great visit to the mnha, especially because of the Norouz = discovery day because of the Iranian New Year.
Iranian music, culinary specials from Iran, special activies (workshops, poetry, dance, Haft Sîn, calligraphy, ....).
Great to enjoy Iranian hospitality and friendly Iranians welcoming visitors to a temporary exhibition which shows pictures taken in Iran, very interesting! Don't forget to take a free brochure giving explanations concerning the pictures on display! Different languages available! (German, French, English).

For some strange reason Luxembourg built this beautiful art and history building right in the city centre. The only problem is that the designer assumed that only French speakers would be interested, despite the fact it's dap smack in the middle of a touristy area. Everything is in French with no other language options available. Very odd. Free to enter and good to kill an hour or so. Even with English translations there isn't that much here, at least from the history point of view.
The art section costs money to see and I didn't visit.

This is a very good museum. Free entry, apart from some exhibitions you have to pay few euros for if you want to see them. Some things are in English, and some are not. This problem is solved by an audio guide, but that is not possible at the moment due to covid-19. However, since it's a free entry I have no complaints, and would highly recommend it.

Like in most museums across Luxembourg, there are no English texts, and during the corona pandemic, there are no audioguides available. So some knowledge of French or German or Letzenburgish will help. The museum houses a very nice and well preserved mosaic, as well as other Roman artefacts. The archaeological section is certainly the strongest part, but there are also some nice early Christian objects on display. There is further generally 2 temporary exhibitions, for which you need to pay. The permanent collection is free.

From the outside, this museum is just a big white box, rather un-inviting except for the banner that promises free entry. The free part applies only to the permanent collection and exhibition areas, but that is plenty when you realize the 5-story building is matched by 5 floors below ground level. We only had time for a couple of floors, and chose the Art in Luxembourg gallery, and two levels from Roman times. We enjoyed the modern and contemporary works by national artists, but have to say it was the Roman mosaic of the muses that really took our breathe away. A 61.3 square metre masterpiece only discovered in 1995 in a region of Luxembourg (Vichten) that was known to have been a Roman settlement circa 240 AD. It took two years to restore but it is quite magnificent, and displayed along with a variety of sculptured pieces, fragments of other tile mosaics and wall frescos, coins, and other artifacts from the Vichten area.

The exhibitions were extensive and well laid out for a nice experience. Unfortunately we were unable to take in the extent of meaning and history as there were no English translations for the text. Despite this, we still had a nice time when it was raining in the City and stumbled across the museum.

We had hoped for better weather but alas it poured all day. We popped into the tourist office and they suggested museums. With our 21 year old in tow we explored all floors. An interesting museum with plenty of information, free cloakroom and a much needed cafe.

There is lots to see in this massive museum in a new building. It’s also free! On the bottom floor you can see remains of a Roman building and the Roman section was my favourite part. It’s situated in the city centre so easy to get to.
