Accessibility

We strive to make the Chocolate Factory E.Wedel accessible and inclusive– we welcome visitors of all nationalities, age groups, and people with disabilities to our museum. We are gradually introducing services and tools that enhance the accessibility of this place, responding to the diverse needs of our audience. Our Museum is accessible to people with various disabilities.  

We are open to suggestions regarding the museum’s accessibility, which we regularly consult with social organizations with expertise in this particular area, including: @Fundacja Polska Bez Barrier (TBD). If you have any comments or questions, please contact us at [email protected].

Wheelchair users, people using crutches, with temporary mobility issues, e.g. a broken leg, or also the elderly, parents with a stroller, do not have to worry about:
  • adequately wide passageways
  • access to lifts and ramps
  • easy-to-open doors
  • properly equipped bathrooms
  • accessibility of the exhibition content (exhibits are located at an appropriate height, accessible to wheelchair users)
  • places to rest (especially for older people - some seats are equipped with backrests or armrests
