A private museum about everyday life in communist Czechoslovakia, 1948-1989, opened in 2001. A school classroom, a grocery shop, a sports hall and a typical flat show propaganda, shortages and the snooping of the StB secret police; the displays use genuine posters, documents and household objects. An hour or so here is a good primer for the city's socialist architecture.

Highlights

  • Everyday life in Czechoslovakia, 1948-1989
  • Classroom, shop and flat as exhibits
