Motor disability and difficulty of movement

The museum rooms allow good ability to move and rest. Before the entrance door there are two consecutive steps measuring 17 and 12 cm high, without handrails. At the ticket office it is possible to request a mobile ramp, which, once installed, has a slope of approximately 15%. The intercom is at a height of 130 cm.  Currently there are no public restrooms.

Hearing disability

The museum is situated entirely on the ground floor. Orientation is possible with the help of maps in each of the rooms. Each map is printed front and back, and for each of the four walls it indicates, marked with letters, the name of the numbered works on display. Not all works are included and some have been moved. An autonomous visit may be difficult due to the brief description of what is present in the hall and its origin. The visibility of some works from the permanent collection may be limited in case of temporary exhibitions.  In some rooms there are explanatory panels that are not always easy to read.

Visual disability

The items are mainly preserved under glass, but with the assistance of museum educational staff it is possible to explore some of them tactilely. Operators show great commitment to compensate for the lack of specific training in working with the visually impaired. There are no explanatory materials in Braille or in large print and captions are difficult to read for visually impaired visitors.
