Old England Building

TIME : 2016/2/18 16:37:43

This 1899 former department store is an art-nouveau showpiece with a black facade aswirl with wrought iron and arched windows. The building contains the groundbreaking music museum , a celebration of music in all its forms, as well as a repository for more than 2000 historic instruments. The emphasis is very much on listening, with auditory experiences around every corner, from shepherds’ bagpipes to Chinese carillons to harpsichords. Don’t miss the rooftop café for a superb city panorama.
