- The layout is compact, so exhibits sit close together and groups often gather at the main highlights.
- The site includes interpretive displays and a short introductory film, plus visible conservation work that explains how pieces are cared for.
- Photography without flash is permitted in most areas, and modest dress is required in line with church etiquette.
