    They have a wonderful library in the afternoon, they can even open in the morning if you ask beforehand and they aren't too fussy about returning a book late. The welcoming staff can be a bit cold, but always helpful!

  • Paolo Ricciardi

    Visite au sein de ce lieu lors des journées du patrimoine. J'ai pu avoir un petit aperçu des salles de conservation et de recherche du Mucem. L'accueil est très agréable et la visite commentée très intéressante et qui apporte également une réflexion sur notre rapport à l'objet, comment le conserver et dans quelle but. J'aurais adoré passer plus de temps à pouvoir chiner ici et là au grè des immenses pièces remplies d'objets. Mais Soyons raisonnable, l'endroit est bien évidemment trop précieux et délicat pour que ce soit un lieu où la visite serait libre. Ces moments- là sont déjà très bien.
