The exhibition is accessible to visitors and offers guided tours in several languages to help understand the collections. Regular events and educational programs are available to deepen engagement with the literary heritage.
The museum preserves a knife with historical significance that appears in one author's literary works. This object connects the fictional world of his stories to the tangible artifacts on display.
