What Travellers Say
Reviews Summary
Visitors are drawn to the museum's charming English-style property and the vibrant, modern stained glass displays. The live music performances add a unique touch, and the exterior offers excellent photo opportunities. However, some feel the ticket price is high for the exhibits, and the designs in the workshop might not appeal to everyone.
"The Victorian Era vibes was amazing, you can buy a lot of great souvenirs. Great quality products and overall beautiful pieces of stained glass."

"Lovely property that looks like a medieval mansion combined with a church. The beautiful stained glass windows are of course a joy to see. In addition, you can hear an old music box play and a live pipe organ in the church. Stained glass lamp works are also available for purchase."
Yuko
"The ticket does not worth the price. Only similar lamp design displayed.
Colorful windows and English style decorations.
The shop sells products made with glass and related to the church but does not worth shopping there deliberately.
Great spot for shooting outside of the church like other churches.
A workshop for glass accessory (requires 40-60min) but the designs are not quite attractive.
Overall, not recommended. Felt like a scam for the ticket and travelled by bus for it :(
But if you go by car, and have other attractions to go nearby, great place for some pictures."
