    We went here with the car club and it isn't just Russian Dolls but also tiny engravings on pips and grains of rice etc that you look at through a microscope. The detail is truly unbelievable. There are also small bottle painted on the inside and a video to see how it is done again quite incredible. It's a unique place to visit.

    (Translated by Google) The schedules do not correspond to the Reality ... you see that it puts open..about and is closed, I believe that if it were kept open when it sets ... people would attend more. (Original) Los horarios no corresponden con la Realidad...ves que pone open..abierto y esta cerrado, yo creo que si se mantuviera abierto cuando pone...la gente asistiria mas .

    Cute little museum in a country town in Andorra. Hire a car and drive around the country, spend 30-60 minutes here to check out some antique artwork

    (Translated by Google) It is worth visiting and seeing, the videos and explanations, which they kindly offer you. Through the microscope, you will be able to observe, the wonderful works, in gold and platinum, in grains of rice, seeds, head of a pin etc. of the Ukrainian artist, Nikolai Syadristy. It also has unique copies, on paper as well as painted Easter eggs, related to Andorrana architecture and orthodox paintings. (Original) Merece la pena visitarlo y ver, los vídeos y explicaciones, que amablemente, te ofrecen.A través del microscopio, podrás observar, las maravillosas obras, en oro y platino, en granos de arroz, pepitas, cabeza de una alfiler etc. del artista ucraniano, Nikolai Syadristy.Tiene además, ejemplares únicos, en papel así cómo huevos de Pascua pintados, relacionados con la arquitectura Andorrana y pinturas ortodoxas.

    The microminiatures are really fascinating. They have a few other exhibits with Russian dolls and a Chinese artist that paints the inside of little bottles. Cool stuff and worth the 5 euro entry just to see the microminiatures.

  • 3/5 konnie C. 2 years ago on Google
    It's OK. Very interesting, but a little overpriced. For a 15 minute visit max you pay 7 euros.

  • 4/5 Jeanine 1 year ago on Google
    A bit of a random museum; miniature art combined with painted bottles, handcrafted boxes and matryoshka dolls. It is small but interesting, especially the miniature art. The lady giving me a short tour was very enthusiastic and nice.

  • 5/5 Oscar M. 10 months ago on Google
    Without a doubt the coolest part of the museum for me was the really miniature creations that could only really be seen through the microscope, as seen in my pictures!

  • 5/5 Catherine D. 8 months ago on Google
    A great little museum full of nesting dolls, icons, lacquer boxes, and microscopic art on rice or in needles. Many from a well known Ukrainian artist. We went in August, high tourist season but no wait. A lovely quaint town as well, a nice respite from the crowds of Andorra la Vella.

  • 5/5 Michael “Schocki PFF” S. 8 months ago on Google
    Worth a visit! Fascinating with a short guided tour. You need about 30 minutes for the visit.

  • 5/5 Justine L. 7 months ago on Google
    A very interesting museum. The first of its kind I've every visited. It might be the only one of its kind..? Well worth the entry ticket. I found all the objects on display very fascinating. Especially the miniscule/microscopic items. They should've called it the microscopic museum, because when say 'miniature museum', I thought it was going to be a museum of miniature models of buildings or stuff like that.😬

  • 4/5 josep s. 3 years ago on Google
    (Translated by Google) It is a small museum, because of the space it occupies, and not because of its name, and that despite its dimensions contains large works that, in my opinion, are very voluminous and original with details and explanations both written and verbal for part of a museum manager, who makes it very understandable of everything on display. There are also explanatory videos where you can see how the matrioskas (Russian dolls) are built - there are many collections of these - among other details. Very interesting figures that you can see through a viewfinder to see the works inside the hole of a sewing needle. (Original) És un petit museu, per l'espai que ocupa, i no pel nom del mateix, i que a pesar de les dimensions conté grans obres que, és la meva opinió, son molt voluoses i originals amb detalls i explicacions tant escrites com verbals per part d'una responsable del museo, que ho fa molt entenedor de tot el que s'hi exposa. També hi han videos explicatius on pots veure-hi com es construeixen les matrioskas (nines ruses) - hi han bastantes col-leccions d'aquestes -, entre altres detalls. Molt interesants les figures que pots veure a través d'un visor per contemplar les obres que hi han dins el forat d'una agulla de cusir.

    (Translated by Google) VISIT OBLIGATED. There are several charms that one can find when visiting Andorra: Río Gran Valira, Plaza del Poble, Sant Esteve Church and Caldea, among others. However, there is a unique corner that is worth seeing. It is the Museum of the Miniature. It is a charming place full of wonderful works. You will find the famous matrioska, figures painted with great delicacy that will leave you speechless and will make you notice even the smallest detail. You will also see some great boxes that at first glance look like wood, but no, they are made of paper and hand painted. And, of course, you can see the great work of the Ukrainian artist Nicolai Siadristy. Each of his works impresses. You think you have seen everything until you move forward and another of his works leaves you speechless again. In addition to all that, it is worth mentioning the treatment received by the museum owner. His kindness and willingness made the visit even more interesting, since he did not hesitate to accompany us and explain the meaning of the exhibition. For all the above, I recommend to everyone who visits Andorra to stop at the Miniature Museum and take a look because, without a doubt, you will not be disappointed. (Original) VISITA OBLIGADA. Son varios los encantos que uno puede encontrar cuando visita Andorra: Río Gran Valira, Plaza del Poble, Iglesia Sant Esteve y Caldea, entre otros. Sin embargo, hay un rincón único que merece la pena ser visto. Se trata del Museo de la Miniatura. Es un lugar con encanto y lleno de maravillosas obras. Encontrarás las famosas matrioska, figuras pintadas con gran delicadeza que te dejarán boquiabierto y harán que te fijes hasta en el más mínimo detalle. También verás unas estupendas cajitas que a primera vista parecen de madera, pero no, están hechas de papel y pintadas a mano. Y, por supuesto, podrás ver la gran obra del artista ucraniano Nicolai Siadristy. Cada una de sus obras impresiona. Piensas que ya lo has visto todo hasta que avanzas y otra de sus obras te vuelve a dejar sin palabras. Ademas de todo eso, merece la pena mencionar el trato recibido por parte del dueño del museo. Su amabilidad y predisposición lograron que la visita fuera todavía más interesante, ya que no dudó en acompañarnos y explicarnos el significado de la exposición. Por todo lo mencionado, recomiendo a todo aquel que visite Andorra que se detenga en el Museo de la Miniatura y eche un vistazo porque, sin duda, no le decepcionará.

    (Translated by Google) If you are in Andorra, this museum deserves your visit. Miniature Art to the point of needing to look with a magnifying glass to be able to see the details. Dozens of Russian dolls. 1 hour is enough to get to know everything calmly. (Original) Se estiver em Andorra, esse museu merece sua visita. Arte em Miniatura a ponto de precisar olhar com lente de aumento pra conseguir ver os detalhes. Dezenas de bonecas russas. 1 hora já é suficiente pra conhecer tudo com calma.

😐 It is a great pity that there are no multilingual information sheets available. You also have to spend a lot of time looking for a parking space. The church itself is worth seeing, especially the tower, main altar and the seamless transition to the adjacent residential building.
