The atmosphere throughout was very exciting and seeing so many enthusiastic, happy faces is exactly what we want for the museum. We&rsquo;re very thankful that the people in Zurich turned out in such great numbers. </p> <p>&ldquo;It was also very nice to see that our different tours were so popular &ndash; we&rsquo;ll have to start thinking about offering them on a permanent basis!&rdquo;</p> <p>The event was held on Saturday, 3 September 2016, as part of an annual event in Zurich that, this year, saw more than 50 of the city&rsquo;s best venues open their doors between the irregular hours of 7PM and 2AM. It was the museum&rsquo;s first involvement in the event, with organisers inviting us to take part as a guest venue.</p> <p>Enjoy a selection of photographs taken throughout the night.</p> <p></p>
