Overview
Museum voskovych figurin is Prague's first dedicated wax museum, serving as a distinct cultural stop in the city center. The project was initiated by Zdeněk Kočík and brought to life in 1997 by a dedicated team of local Czech sculptors, architects, and makeup artists. Visitors can explore a collection that spans the twentieth century, featuring a mix of global celebrities like Michael Jackson and Elton John, alongside pivotal historical figures like Bedřich Smetana and Alfons Mucha. It provides a straightforward and visual way to encounter famous individuals from the realms of politics, art, and sports, all housed within an indoor setting that is easily accessible during a day of touring the surrounding historic districts.
