Yes, visitors are allowed to touch many of the displays and sometimes try on replica items. This hands-on approach is frequently mentioned as a highlight in customer reviews.
The museum contains graphic and realistic depictions of torture. Many reviewers do not recommend it for small children or people with a history of trauma due to the intense and sometimes disturbing nature of the exhibits.
Guests typically spend between 1.5 and 3 hours to fully explore the museum, especially when listening to the full audio guide. Arriving close to closing time is not advised, as you may feel rushed.
