Private automata and mechanical-music collection tours
Explore mechanical marionettes with a collection expert
Morris Museum
The Morris Museum offers adult groups and families a private expert-led tour of its Guinness Collection. The focus is mechanical musical instruments and moving figures: music boxes, player pianos and mechanical marionettes rather than a general gallery visit.
