blind visitor experiences at art museums

The Typhlological Museum (opened in 1992) is a cultural space dedicated to the exhibition of artistic works and typhlological material that are made here perceptible through touch. The aim of this museum is to offer blind people a normalized visit to a museum where they can touch all the exhibits, since it has an exhibition of models that reproduce the most important national and international monuments. The Typhlological Museum of Madrid is fully accessible for blind people, since it has orientation maps in relief, and all the information about the exhibits is in Braille.
