Overview
Museum Kampa is located in the historic Sova's Mill in the Lesser Town district of Prague. It serves as a home for the extensive art collection of Jan and Meda Mládek, who were dedicated supporters of non-conformist Czechoslovak artists during their years in exile. The museum is particularly notable for housing the largest collection of works by the abstract painting pioneer František Kupka. Beyond the permanent Kupka exhibition, the museum regularly hosts temporary shows featuring significant 20th-century Central European artists. Over the years, these exhibitions have included works by Toyen, Kamil Lhotak, Karel Malich, and Andy Warhol. The institution actively engages with the public through various educational programs for both schools and casual visitors.
