Accessibility

GENERAL INFORMATION

We warmly welcome visitors with a wide variety of needs. To make your visit as pleasant as possible, we are happy to make special arrangements on request. Our museum, a stately home that took on its present form around 1800, is only partially barrier-free. However, we are constantly striving to improve accessibility. Our museum strategy states that we want to develop into an inclusive and sustainable museum.

 

ABOUT THE BUILDING

Arrival and access

Access to the Richard Wagner Museum from Lucerne railroad station is generally possible for wheelchair users. Please note, however, that there is a section with a noticeable incline at the end of the route. Alternatively, you can take bus number 7 or 8. If you arrive at the “Wartegg” bus station, you can expect a barrier-free route without any major inclines, which can be easily negotiated with a wheelchair. Arrival information

Access to the museum itself is a challenge. There is a staircase with nine steps leading to the entrance area, which must be negotiated without a wheelchair. However, we would like to point out that there is a sturdy handrail to lean on.

 

Ground conditions

The forecourt of the museum is paved with pebbles. All accessible rooms in the exhibitions have parquet flooring, stone slabs or a carpet that is easily accessible by wheelchair.

 

Toilets for people with disabilities

There is one wheelchair-accessible outdoor toilet.
