From the time the luxurious Old England shops opened, at the end of the 19th century, they acquired a strong reputation thanks to their very particular building. While the entrance is Art Nouveau, the rest of the building is in perfect harmony with the neoclassical whole of the Place Royale. The MIM chose this architectural gem in June 2000 to be housed in.
The museum's extraordinary collections in particular stand out. When you enter the museum, you embark on a world journey through music, with more than 1,150 masterpieces.
The MIM is a place were you can live...with music. Thanks to headphones, visitors can listen to the sounds of the instruments on display.
