Museums in Prague

A weird and wonderful array of museums

Prague museums are more numerous than in any city of Prague’s size in Europe, ranging from the standard historical ones to the truly bizarre, such as the Miniatures Museum at Strahov, where tics have been given handtools (alas they’re not alive to demonstrate them). The Museum of Communism, the city’s most controversial (it’s a commercial operation run by an American expat but is well curated and intelligent), is a must, while the National Museum can seem a bit dull.
