Très belle visite, mais nous avons vu le théâtre des box. Pas de possibilités de prendre des photos de la salle et en plus il y avait le soir une représentation. À faire néanmoins

The tour guide seemed very disinterested and was speaking in a very boring sleepy manner. It could have been more interestingly conducted.

Prima Reiseführer, hat die Führung interessant und informativ gestaltet. Wer nur das Museum besuchen möchte, benötigt nicht zwingend eine Tour.

Leuke rondleiding en bezoek aan het museum. Onze gids was een boeiende verteller. Gebouw is aan de buitenzijde niet heel indrukwekkend maar de binnenzijde moet je echt gaan bekijken.
