    I really liked this museum. There are NFC-tagged audioguides all over the museum, which allowed me to really dive into the content provided. The different floors have many different topics and everyone should find something interesting. Especially check out the outer building in the back of the garden, where you will find the lastest history of the region. Very interesting! The whole thing is also really cheap for students!

    The garden is very beautiful! The exhibition could be better guided/labeled etc.
