About the trip

A museum dedicated to the greatest Czech who never lived. The collection of his "inventions", documents and props is presented with a straight face and dry humour – it works for adults who know the plays and for children who do not. An ideal programme for a rainy afternoon.

Personal tip from us

Treat it as a double bill with the Štěpánka lookout tower – they are minutes apart and together they make a fine afternoon.

Tips

  • The best choice for a day when it rains and the ridges are out of the question.
  • Check the opening hours in advance; outside the main season they are limited.
  • The Štěpánka lookout tower is just up the road – you can do both.
