Attached to a pedestal about 180 cm tall is a puppet whose different body parts can be touched.

The joints between body parts, and in places the puppet's insides, are visible. The different body parts and joints are marked with tactile numbers.

At the right edge of the pedestal, about 80 cm from the floor, is a wooden pocket holding tactile cards with the names and numbers of the materials.

Above the pocket are the exhibit number, the NFC symbol and a QR code — scanning it lets you experience the exhibition in an accessible way.
