Frequently Asked Questions


Can I come to the Museum just to visit the Museum Shop? If so, do I have to pay the admission fee?

You do not have to pay the fee, but you must go to the Visitor Center and receive a pass. The pass issued for the Museum Shop is free of charge, but it does not grant the visitor access to the rest of the Museum.
