Entrance to the museum costs only €2 each and although the museum is small it is very interesting. There is a stand with a “guess the smell” game which is more fun than it sounds! For €5 you can cut and stamp your own soap. The museum includes a seeing how soap is made from beginning to end. I would recommend this to anyone. The icing on the cake is that entrance includes a token for a free bar of soap in their shop next door!
