Heads-up

Allow extra time to move between B1 and 1F by wheelchair. You must leave the building and come back in, and the distance and slope of the outside route are not known.

The museum closes on Mondays. If a Monday is a public holiday, it opens that day and closes the next day.

Getting in

Entrance
A ramp leads to the main entrance, so you can enter by wheelchair. There is no large door at the front, so you go around the building to reach the entrance.
Parking
There are 2 accessible parking spaces in front of the Pureun Dosi Saeopso office (푸른도시사업소). The museum has no lot of its own, so use the Seoul-run public lot at Namsan Park Hoehyeon. One travel guide says weekends can be crowded and parking can be hard (April 2025).
Route
The museum's directions use bus 402 or 405 to the Namsan Library (남산도서관) stop. They also give bus 405 from the Sungnyemun (숭례문) stop near Seoul Station Exit 4. Exit 9-1, used for bus 402, likely has no street elevator (see Getting there).
Hill
In practice, walking from Hoehyeon Station Exit 5 through Namdaemun Market likely means climbing a hill. A wheelchair route from the station elevator exits is not known.

Inside

Floors
The building has 2 floors below ground and 2 above. The exhibition entrance and Room 1 are on B1, Room 2 is on 1F, and Room 3 is on 2F.
Elevator
The museum has an elevator. A breakdown stopped it from June 9, 2026, until repairs finished on June 16, 2026, and it then returned to normal service.
B1 to 1F
The indoor way from B1 to 1F is an escalator, so wheelchair users must go outside and re-enter the building. Ask staff for the way before you leave B1.
Toilets
There is an accessible toilet on B1.
