The Couven Museum is housed in a historic town house. Unfortunately, this means that only limited barrier-free access is available to some rooms on the ground floor.

The exhibition rooms on the first and second floors are not barrier-free accessible. Guide dogs are very welcome. Our trained staff offer blind and visually impaired visitors a vivid tour through the museum with a wide range of sensory impressions.
