About the Museum

Let the Museum introduce itself


About Museum of Tarot

Museum of Tarot (or Bảo Tàng Tarot in Vietnamese), founded in 2016 (will officially open in 2017), is located in Can Tho City, in the south of Vietnam. The museum has three themes: Lithotherapy, Cartomancy and Demonology.

It is combined from six main collections related to Tarology:

Fortune Telling Cards (Tarot and Oracles decks), Historical Books and Documents on Cartomancy, Art of Cardmaking and Decoration of Fortune Telling Cards; Amulets and Talismans and Magical Tools; Lithotherapy Crystals and Charmestones; Demonological and Sacred Books and Haunted Objects.

The museum is established in an ancient noble hotel, called “the citron house”, under the Vietnamese renaissance style. This house is sacrificed for the museum by an old couple of lawyer, Anh Ngo and Duong Ho in 2015.

Gilded Tarot Royale

BB060

The Gilded Tarot Royale is a captivating deck that revisits Ciro Marchetti’s original Gilded Tarot with fresh insights and enhancements. Released ten years after the original, this deck combines enthralling retrotech aesthetics with Carnivale-style beauty1.

In this reworking, the art has been refined, and the gilded edges of the cards add a touch of elegance. The images are thoughtfully designed for use in readings, and the cardstock is both firmer and larger than standard Tarot decks, enhancing their impact during readings. The Gilded Tarot Royale is a worthy addition to any Tarot enthusiast’s collection, offering rich symbolism and expressive imagery1.
