Borrow a bicycle or a boat
The culture experience continues also outside the museum buildings: the art museum’s magnificent park and lakeside nature invites you to enjoy the natural art and local culture of the small town. With the price of the entrance fee and by showing your identity card, you can borrow a bicycle, Nordic walking poles or rowing boat and spend a day amid the beautiful surroundings of the Art Town.
