One of the museum's highlights is its collection of clocks from the entire period of mechanical and mechanical-electric clockmaking. Visitors can see mechanisms dating as far back as the 14th or 15th century, as well as those made after World War II. The tower of the church of St. Catherine is home to carillons, a set of tower bells, which can be played in manual and automatic modes. Please note the staircase leading to the ticket office is narrow and winding. Entering the first hall requires climbing 66 steps. The museum has no facilities for wheelchair users.
