A small and modest museum. You can spend around 1 - 1.5 hour. There were not so many visitors so it was quiet. The entrance fee is 150kc for adult.

One of my favorite museums in Prague! This is a nice museum that both kids and adults would enjoy. The exhibits are interactive and the explanations provide a lot of context. Even though I've never seen a Karel Zeman film before, the museum did a great job building up the context. The exhibits show the process that Zeman uses to create his film effects and also shows the literary significance of his work. I'd highly recommend going here!

The museum is not very big and the entrance fee is almost high respect to the othe other museums such as prague echnical museum, also you have to pay fee for the taking photos. However, the 3d model was impressive and the technology via ring it was las nice.

Provides a comprehensive history of the city. If you do a brief reading at each exhibit you would probably spend about an hour. There is an admission fee. Only 3 stars because it made me less curious about Prague history than I originally was as the content on the reading panels was not very interesting and not chronologically curated as a whole. Wouldn't recommend going out of your way to visit.

If you are planning a trip to Prague, you should start here. The small model of the city gives you a good way to visualise the different spots in the city, and how you could get there. Taking photo's is not allowed, unless you pay a fee. Students: price here is 60 kč a person, with public transport of 32 kč to get there, it is one of the cheapest places to go. Not discounted fees are 130 kč a person. Is it interesting? Yes, if you are interested in history. It starts with the archeology of Prague and the creation of the city, and continues with general medieval history and artefacts.

Great location but there simply isn't much too see there. The exhibitions are rather repetitive (identical ones can be found in other neighbouring countries), and I just wish the museum displayed distinctive things that'd be strictly indicative of Prague and the city's rich history.

The museum was quite nice although they maybe need to do some refurbishment in some rooms. I really liked the part about the start of Prague but I was disappointed to see that they stopped before our time. I was expecting to see every piece of the history of Prague. The staff of the museum was also very nice even though they did not speak English. They tried to explain us things and they really did everything to make our visit interesting. It was really nice of them!

Decent history museum. Mostly covers natural history from pre historic to the 1950s. Mostly centered around life in and around Prague. Pots, pans, articles of clothing, diet, etc. Decent size museum. Covers a good amount of space. Missing the development of the city and ownership of it over time.

(Translated by Google) I like this museum, but small but high quality permanent exhibitions and interesting exhibitions. I especially like the Langweil model of Prague, which I like to warn about. (Original) Tohle muzeum mám rád, malé ale ale kvalitní stálé expozice a zajímavé výstavy. Obzvlášť se mi líbí Langweilův model Prahy, k němu se rád varacím.

(Translated by Google) Langweil's model of Prague is amazing, with little light - there are two touch monitors with detailed information. In the dressing room on the ground floor you can put off your coats, on the top floor there is a barrel with drinking water and cups. (Original) Langweilův model Prahy je úžasný, jen je málo nasvicený - jsou tam dva dotykové monitory s podrobnými informacemi. V šatně v přízemí lze odložit kabáty, v posledním patře je barel s pitnou vodou a kelímky.

(Translated by Google) I didn't go inside, it looks beautiful from the outside. (Original) İceriye girmedim disaridan guzel duruyor

Very nice small private museum. Unlike, the other private museums that feel like tourist traps this one is not it. We enjoyed the detailed history of the movie making process for Karel Zeman. After we left we looked up a few of his movies and watched one that night. Very nice museum.

Good even if you never seen Karel Zeman movies. This is an opportunity to see how the special effects were made before computer era. Museum is very interactive. Good to spend 1.5 hour

(Translated by Google) Super beautiful spectacle I personally returned to childhood. I highly recommend everything👍👍👍 (Original) Super krásná podívaná já osobně jsem se vrátil do dětských let.Všem mooc doporučuji👍👍👍

A fine museum about the history of Prague from pre-history to the 1700s. After you have read about Czech history, taken the tours, walked the the narrow streets, and gotten a feel for the terrain, you will want to see this museum. It nicely ties together the various cultural, religious, and historical themes of the city so that you will understand more clearly the forces that shaped this beautiful city.

Nice museum which cover Prague history from prehistory to now. First part of the exhibition seems to be have been renovated recently, and is great. The second part looks older and is not as great, I hope they'll be renovate it too. They don't speak about modern history, too bad. Staff is nice and try to explain things, but their english is limited so it's kind of hard to communicate.

The museum is small and underwhelming. It's not very welcoming, every exhibition room is behind closed doors(literally). It offers a history of the city of Prague but doesn't make it fun or interesting. The information is in Czech and English and is concise, I would say this is more of a locals museum or very interested tourists.

Great place to visit in Prague, museum is quite informative and fulfilled with blacksmiths' items starting from the very first cast metal, ending with incredibly complicated locks of XV-XVII century. Sometimes it'll take you a few minutes to understand (if you'd be able to) the principle of mechanism.

Czech and English labels, interest, lack of people, good price

Great museum covering various aspects of Prague's history and pre history. Loved the exhibition of photographs by Jovan Dezort. Entrance fee is reasonable, well worth a visit if in Prague.

Best museum in Prague, do not miss this one. The city model is spectacular! Best visited at the end of a trip when you will know what you are looking at.

A very well-organized museum with admirable pieces. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Very nicely made muzeum! I love the model of Prague and dont forget to always have a look on the ceiling! :-)

Museum was closed for rehabilitation, which is necessary to preserve its amazing architecture.

Not impressive. We visited it as we had feee entrance part of the Prague city card.

Detailed historical narrative with many physical artifacts. If you enjoy history, museums, and Prague, you'll enjoy this. But if you have only limited time, it's not a 'must see.'

Not much to see. Prague from paleolithic times on. Probably best to visit when they have special exhibition.

(Translated by Google) We saw beautiful pictures of Mr. Dezort that brought us back to our childhood. Dear cashier and other staff members were very nice. We came at a time when the museum was almost empty, so we enjoyed its visit. Thanks. (Original) Viděli jsme krásně fotky pana Dezorta které nás vrátili do dětství. Milá paní pokladní i ostatní členové personálu byli moc fajn. Přišli jsme v čase kdy bylo muzeum téměř liduprázdné takže jsme si jeho navstevu báječně užili. Díky.

(Translated by Google) Interesting information on the history of the city and an interesting exhibition on 17 November (Original) Zajímavé informace o historii města a poutavá výstava o 17.listopadu

(Translated by Google) The museum deserves our visit not only because of the Langweil model of Prague, but also because it will close for two years in June. At the same time there is not enough space and therefore the museum would welcome space after the former railway station Těšnov. Keep your fingers crossed! (Original) Muzeum si zaslouží naši návštěvu nejen kvůli Langweilovu modelu Prahy, ale i kvůli tomu, že se bude v červnu na 2 roky zavírat. Zaroven zde chybí dostatečné prostory a proto by muzeum uvitalo prostor po bývalém nádraží Těšnov. Držme palce!

(Translated by Google) This manageable but very interesting museum is located in a fantastic building. Unfortunately, it is not barrier-free. The model of old Prague created by Antonín Langweil (1791-1837) fascinates every visitor and impresses with its size of 20 square meters. You can interactively view areas of the city on a monitor and learn more. I also really liked the special exhibition with photographs by Jovan Dezort. The staff is nice, the entry price is cheap and the guarded cloakroom is free. Visit!!! (Original) In einem fantastischen Gebäude befindet sich dieses überschaubare, aber sehr interessante Museum. Leider ist es nicht barrierefrei. Das von Antonín Langweil (1791–1837) erstellte Modell des alten Prag fasziniert jeden Besucher und beeindruckt durch seine Größe von 20 Quadratmetern. Interaktiv kann man sich Bereiche der Stadt auf einen Monitor anzeigen lassen und mehr erfahren. Die Sonderausstellung mit Fotografien von Jovan Dezort hat mir ebenfalls sehr gut gefallen. Das Personal ist nett, der Eintrittspreis günstig und die bewachte Garderobe gratis. Besuchen!!!

(Translated by Google) Frankly, maybe it depends on the days but a museum at the price more than honest, with the best staff I have had so far. They are so nice compared to many others ... I would recommend it to everyone. They have a guide in French to follow which explains a little everything. (Original) Franchement, peut être que ça dépend des jours mais un musée au prix plus qu'honete, avec le meilleur personnel que j'ai eu jusqu'à maintenant.

(Translated by Google) Very nice. The staff are top and welcoming. (Original) Très sympa. Le personnel est top et accueillant.

One of the best musea in Europe

(Translated by Google) The museum is beautifully made, also suitable for children, housed in a beautiful building, near the metro station Florenc. (Original) Muzeum je krásné udělané, vhodné i pro děti,sídlí v krásné budově,u stanice metra Florenc.

(Translated by Google) Children enjoyed the permanent exhibition. We were here for the second time and each time it was due to the fact that there was an exhibition of the magazine Čtyřlístek and on that occasion is the opportunity to look at other places in the museum. (Original) Stálá expozice se líbila i dětem. Byli jsme tu už podruhé a pokaždé to bylo díky tomu že zde byla výstava časopisu Čtyřlístek a při té příležitosti je možnost podívat se i do ostatních míst muzea.

(Translated by Google) It's not tragic. Cheap admission and such an exhibition. (Original) Nie jest tragicznie. Tani wstęp i taka wystawa.

(Translated by Google) Always beautiful exhibitions (Original) Vzdy krasne vystavy

Museum for everyone who wants to learn about Prague.

In my opinion not worth it. NOT wheelchair friendly!

(Translated by Google) High quality museum. There are many interesting exhibits and a large paper model of the center. (Original) Velmi kvalitní muzeum. Je tu hodně zajímavých exponátů a velký papírový model centra.

(Translated by Google) Not great, but interesting. (Original) Non grande, ma interessante.

(Translated by Google) Very interesting even if we do not understand everything since the legends and explanations are in Czech and / or English. We understand in any case that this country has a recent history not very happy that they expose clearly. It was both touching and committed but necessary (Original) Très intéressant même si on ne comprends pas tout puisque les légendes et explications sont en tchèque et/ou en anglais. On comprend en tout cas que ce pays a une histoire récente peu réjouissante qu'ils exposent clairement. C'était à la fois touchant et engagé mais nécessaire

(Translated by Google) A rather interesting museum about Prague until the 18th century, but after, there is nothing! Nothing about Prague in the nineteenth, nothing about its status as capital after the First World War, nothing about Prague and Nazism. Nothing about the communist era (the coup de Prague, the new neighborhoods of buildings, the metro, the aborted revolution of 1968?). A recent past that still divides maybe ... Nothing about Prague after the communist era, integrated in the heart of the EU and facing mass tourism ... A very incomplete museum so, and that's a shame ... :-( Ideal museum if you want to escape the crowds of tourists, as it is a museum with little traffic. (Original) Un musée assez intéressant sur Prague jusqu'au XVIIIe siècle, mais après, il n'y a plus rien ! Rien sur Prague au XIXe, rien sur son statut de capitale après la Première guerre mondiale, rien sur Prague et le nazisme. Rien non plus sur l'époque communiste (le coup de Prague, les nouveaux quartiers d'immeubles, le métro, la révolution avortée de 1968 ?). Un passé récent qui divise encore peut-être... Rien sur Prague après l'ère communiste, intégrée au coeur de l'UE et qui doit faire face au tourisme de masse... Un musée très incomplet donc, et c'est bien dommage... :-( Musée idéal si vous voulez fuir la foule de touristes, car c'est un musée peu fréquenté.

Small, interactive, interesting, worthy for the price. Wonderful experience not only for the children, but to anybody who loves cinema and willing to learn a bit about Czech audiovisual culture. Do not miss "to star in a movie" at the end of the exhibition and email yourself a piece of your improvisation! Recommend it!

This place is simply amazing and for sure I will visit it again next time în Prague. I felt like a kid at the science class, discovering all sort of machines, tehniques, and trying them. I also enjoyed the posibility of watching scenes from the movies, wich helped me to have a better image of every thing I've seen here.

Nice little museum with some interactive displays which the kids enjoyed. Interesting to learn about Karel Zeman, one of the Czech Republic's cinematic greats from the golden days of cinema

Realy good breakdowns of how the visual effects in some of Zeman's films where made with examples where you can try it yourself. Recommend for anyone interested in film above the age of 8. Although it is a bit expensive for what it is. I went through the entire museum in roughly 1,5 hours.

Fantastic small museum. My 11 and 13 year old were entranced by exhibits. They do a nice job of explaining and showing in short films, Zeman's different techniques and there are a series of video and photo opportunities where you can do it yourself on various props including a great green screen opportunity at the end where you can put yourself into clips from the original movies. We had a terrific time in part since it was such an unexpected activity in the middle of our trip to Prague. i just wish we could watch the movies now that we are home.

Little museum but very interesting for a film fans

For so much money it's too small, but they have interactive worksheets and games even for small children and that was great!

Jedno z najzaujímavejších múzeí ktoré som si počas návštevy užil.

A real hidden gem. Only visited because we wanted to kill some time on our last day and very glad we did. The museum offers a fascinating insight into one of Czechia's most influential filmmakers, with loads of interactive exhibits and informative explanations. Great for all ages and one of the best things we did during out visit to Prague. Highly recommended.

The Muzeum hlavního města Prahy is amazing to see so much history of Prague. The displays are very well displayed and explanation in Czech and English. The Langweil's Model of Prague is really fantastic and even more so that is was made between 1826 and 1837. Easy to get to from Metro station Florenc.

This outside of muzeum at florence . Nice place

Impressive building and the history of Prague

I loved this museum so much. I had a great experience. The entire staff is lovely, kind and helpful. Loved the 3D cardboard model of XVI century's Prague. The children's area is great!! Highly recommended.
