Event at the Museum of Musical Automata on August 11, 2026 FULLY BOOKED
The Museums-PASS-Musées, in collaboration with the Museum of Musical Automata, invites you to an exclusive evening event on August 11, 2026, at 6:30 p.m.
The Museum of Musical Automata in Seewen (CH) houses one of the world’s largest collections of original Swiss music boxes, as well as fascinating musical automata spanning several centuries. During a one-hour guided tour, visitors will discover this unique world of sound and learn fascinating facts about orchestrions, figurine automata, and self-playing keyboard instruments. A special highlight is the gigantic Welte organ, which was originally built for the Britannic, the sister ship of the Titanic.
