Un musée très intéressant avec une belle collection. La mise en scène des objets est agréable et les explications sont très clairs.

De très belles pièces de poterie qui sortent de l’ordinaire et du déjà vu dans ce voyage sur plusieurs siècles et civilisations. Certaines sérieuses et d’autres amusantes. Un arrangement des salles qui incite à une promenade vraiment passionnante.
