The museum is housed in a large 4-storey building, which will amaze you from the very first moment with its impressive modernist steel and glass façade designed by the architect Paul Saintenoy.

You'll see different information points about the instruments, but you can enhance your experience by purchasing the audio guide. Here you will find additional information and the sound of each of the instruments.
This is one of the most interesting museums in the city, as it has some of the most curious elements of music of all times:
- The history of harpsichords and keyboards in the Western world.
- Toots Thielemans' harmonic candle
- The componium, a 19th century automatic organ capable of composing music automatically.
- Ancient instruments, such as the 16th century mouth harp.
This original collection began with the private collection of 172 instruments of François-Joseph Fétis, the first director of the conservatoire. Since then, many other instruments have been added.
For your convenience, tickets include fast-track access. You will enter the museum as soon as you arrive, without waiting in line.
