À propos
Faits rapides: A staggering 3,000 musical instruments fill every corner of this private collection, with some pieces dating back four centuries. The collection spans everything from a 1700s harpsichord to antique music boxes, gramophones, and even a piano that once belonged to a famous composer.
Points forts: Tucked inside a modest 19th-century building, the collection hides a working 1920s Wurlitzer organ that still belts out tunes during afternoon visits. Visitors can hear the mechanical roar of player pianos and watch music boxes spin live, making the museum feel more like a time machine than a display hall.
Conseils d'initiés
- Arrive by 11 AM or 3 PM to catch the instrument demonstration sessions that bring the museum to life.
- Ask staff to play the 1920s Wurlitzer organ specifically: it is their pride and the loudest, most dramatic experience in the building.
- Photography is allowed without flash, so bring a camera for the ornate details on antique harpsichords and music boxes.
- The building has narrow staircases and no elevator, so visitors with mobility concerns should be aware ahead of time.
