    Glass fronted main entrance is step free and takes you into the ticket desk. Most of the museum is on the ground floor, with some side rooms. There is a lift to the other floors. There is a garden which is nicely laid out with gravel paths. The information in the museum is in French. I was given a A4 booklet in English, standard size print, with information about many of the exhibits.

    There is a lift to the 2 accessible toilets in the basement. The toilets both had one grab rail and no emergency alarm.

    There was a receptionist at the front door who was very helpful but I didn't see any other members of staff around.

    Additional Information

    The museum will be of interest for anyone who wants to know more about the area.
