Truely fabulous little museum with some incredible exhibitions, I must mention how amazing the staff there were particularly Jana who made such an effort talking about the displays with both my boys. My eldest has never been as engaged with displays and that's is a credit to her passion and enthusiasm. 5 stars not enough
