Historic organs, spinets, harpsichords, violins and flutes – 500 years of music history tell a story of inventiveness and the joy of playing music. The museum’s showpiece is the Mighty Wurlitzer, the largest cinema and theatre organ on the European continent, from which the most curious sounds can be coaxed.
