Unless interested in their field, the only thing you can do here is admire the inside and the outside of this beautiful building

Interesting to see and understand some of the local culture and history. The center is located in a quiet alley of the area. The signs are well directed and you can find it easily.
The center is very quiet and I wouldn’t know I could go in until a keeper opened the door and invited me inside. As I didn’t have much time, I just did a once over. Better if there’s more time to slowly read the information and see the display exhibits.
Small exhibition area mostly for adults interested in history or culture. Boring for kids.
