“The castle was much bigger inside than expected, with amazing history and stunning artefacts. It was a great time of year to visit, not too crowded, and the whole experience was interesting. Walking where people walked hundreds of years ago felt humbling.”

“What a great museum. Full of so much history. The medals, the torches, the sports kit. Soooo cool”
“Great weather, beautiful hike”
“Great. We thought we would spend 1.5 to 2 hours with my 4-year-old daughter, but we ended up staying all afternoon.”
“Really great visit, well organized and interesting.”
“An immersive exhibition that touches the soul. Every detail has been thoughtfully crafted, staying true to Chaplin's humanism. You feel connected to his world from the moment the film starts at the cinema, before gradually exploring each theme of his vast body of work. A body of work that rises above human foolishness through laughter, poetry, beauty, dreams, and unconditional love. Universal.”
