Interactive guided tour

During a guided tour at Fenix, a guide will take you through the museum. You start downstairs at the entrance, where you learn about the history of the warehouse and what unfolded around the Fenix quays, the key place of departure and arrival. The guide then takes you to the All Directions exhibition. Here, you will explore six artworks and discuss different themes surrounding migration. The tour ends at the Tornado, where you continue your way up independently.

The tours are interactive, and the guide asks the group questions about the themes in the collection, such as “When do you feel at home?” You get to know each other better, and the stories behind the artworks become even more vivid.
