What to expect
Step into daily life in Communist-era Czechoslovakia at the Museum of Communism. Roam through authentically reconstructed spaces like classrooms and bedrooms, filled with original artifacts providing insights into post-war history.
Your admission grants access to a 1,500 m² exhibition with 62 panels, spanning the totalitarian regime from the February putsch in 1948 to the Velvet Revolution in 1989. Thematic sections cover politics, sports, economics, education, socialist realist art, propaganda, militias, army, police, StB (secret police), censorship, courts, show trials, and political labor camps during the Stalinist era.
Interact with mock-ups of a shock worker’s workshop, a classroom, a child’s bedroom, and an interrogation room. Short videos, posters, and artifacts offer a detailed overview, alongside a vast photographic collection from various archives. Visit the museum cafe for a break, and catch a short documentary in the cinema about the communist era during your visit
