Fodor's Review:

Enter the world of a "girl's best friend" through the high-tech interactive displays in this diamond museum. The visit begins on the third floor where interesting lighting, touch-screen computers, and amazing exhibits illustrate the entire production process, from mining to gem cutting. There's also general information on diamond sources and qualities that will prime your understanding of the precious stones. A free English-language audioguide explains the wonderful collections of jewelry, which range from 16th-century pieces to contemporary creations.

  • Cost: EUR 6
