The historical museum is open from 30 October to 3 November from 12:00 - 16:00 during the autumn holiday week and has free entry for everyone.
Every day at 12:30 and 15:00 p.m., the museum's tours that are suitable for children start. You and your family can join the tours and learn about everything from Egyptian mummies to how to end up in Valhalla. After the screening, we go down to the museum's historic workshop and there you can continue to learn more about creepiness.
If you don't want to go along to a viewing, you can go on a quiz about skeletons and graves.
The shows are free, but require a ticket.
