Baby Day: A day when the museum opens especially for families with babies and infants (March 24, 2025)

Events Access Program

Worried about taking a small child to a museum? Looking for a different place to visit with your child? This program is designed for families with babies and infants. The museum, usually closed on this day, opens especially for these visitors, allowing them to enjoy exhibitions with peace of mind.  On this special day, visitors will be able to bring baby strollers into the main building, which normally does not allow the use of strollers inside.

Advance registration is required. Details on how to register will be available on this page around January 2025.

  • A nursing room is available. (Up to 2 groups can use the room at the same time).
  • Baby food and beverage space is available only on Baby Day.
  • The garden is open until 15:00.
  • As the Museum’s main building is a designated “Important Cultural Property” that preserves most of its original architecture, there are many areas with narrow entrances or with steps. Please note that some larger strollers will not be able to access all areas. We recommend that you bring a baby carrier or similar alternative.
