All about: Museums and Galleries in Prague

muzeum-komunismu02-jpg  It is the first and only Museum in Prague (since the Velvet Revolution) exclusively devoted to a system established in the sphere of the former Soviet Union. Opened in 2001, the original items and installations containing authentic artifacts are displayed in the three main rooms of the Museum and conveniently follow the themes of: Communism The Dream, The Reality and The Nightmare. There is also a projection room with regular short film screenings.

The Museum occupies 500 m2 inside the Savarin Palace situated in the center of Prague on Na Prikope Street 10 near the metro station MUSTEK (line A and B) It is above McDonalds and open from 9 am to 9 p.m. (including holidays). V.I Lenin must be turning in his grave.

We hope you take the time whilst in Prague to learn a little about it’s recent history from a Czech point of view. Concise, objective, but certainly not pro Communist, the Museum is a great way to get a basic understanding of how this amazing Nation lived through such difficult and totalitarian times.

  Tourist guide PRAGUE CITY LINE - Prague 1 (7,0 MiB, 19 328 hits)

Prague 1 still belongs to one of the most attractive parts of the whole Prague. Probably nowhere else you can find such a concentration of historic monuments and places where the history and romance of bygone times are all around you. Hardly anywhere you can walk on the same paths where were walking Franz Kafka, Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, and the Golem of Prague.
