Paul Kirner's Music Palace is a converted chapel in Ynyshir housing a collection which presently consists of four theatre pipe organs, along with vintage electronic organs and keyboards and other media and memorabilia. You can attend public performances showcasing our instruments, join a pre-booked guided tour for groups of between 15-80 people, visit on open days, or book an individual private practice session. Events include recitals by world-renowned theatre organists and a 1927 silent film with live organ accompaniment. The building has flat and level access into the building, making it suitable for most visitors. It's a distinctive outing for enthusiasts, and with Porth station 0.9 miles away and 10 bookable places to stay within 5 miles, it's easy to combine with a short break nearby on BritStays.
