Institutional insight
Learn how a major national museum operates.
Explore the history of the institution and its collections.
Overview
The National Museum is an essential stop for anyone wishing to understand the heritage of the Czech Republic and the broader natural world. Located at the top of Wenceslas Square, this massive institution consists of a grand historical building and a contemporary new building, linked together by an underground corridor featuring an immersive multimedia exhibition. Visitors can explore detailed narratives of modern Czech history, ranging from the First World War to the nation's entry into the European Union. Furthermore, the museum houses one of Europe's most modern natural history collections, highlighted by a striking fin whale skeleton and over 1,500 other unique specimens. The site serves as a national cultural monument, providing a space for both education and quiet appreciation of history. For those with families, a dedicated Children's Museum is available within the new building, though it requires specific timed tickets and accompaniment by an adult.
