As with all work on museum objects, we listened carefully to the wishes of museum staff. The museum was restored and adapted for modern use.

First and foremost, everything that had been done during the Soviet period of use was cleaned and removed. There was a need to create comfortable and modern exhibitions, while maintaining the spirit of antiquity. The museum exhibits various objects, from guns and coins to huge anchors and even ships.

Therefore we selected the museum equipment very thoroughly and calculated load-bearing capacities – the equipment should look nice and not break under the weight of the exhibits in the long run.

We calculated use scenarios – flows of people from the cash desk through all the rooms or according to excursions. We optimised the work of the staff – the custodian should not be overburdened or bored in the hall. The museum is accessible to wheelchair users. Because it is a castle, the historical staircases are narrow. A special lift was organised.

The exhibits are of historical value. So we strengthened the security system and consulted the museum staff extensively on additional security measures.
