    The historical exhibit is small -- four rooms -- and feels scattered, at least when trying to follow its progression in English. It starts with the German occupation, implying there was no Czech postal service prior to WWII. It's disappointing that the mail on display is printed copies and not original items. The philatelic exhibit downstairs is vast, but it is arranged more as a collection than a gallery. Admission is only 50 czk, so it's hard to complain; but this postal museum is a far cry from its counterparts in countries like Poland, Serbia and the U.S.

    The museum is only in the Czech language. Some postal history on display. Upstairs the guard showed me a room with historical Czech flags. I think somewhere is a display of old postal delivery vehicles. I did not find the reception staff friendly or helpful.

    (Translated by Google) However, I was a little disappointed ... The museum is small. I only came across an exhibition of stamps with images of fairy-tale characters. Unfortunately, it didn't tell me much. On the ground floor there is a large collection of old stamps from different countries. For a philatelist, this section may be interesting. (Original) Jednak byłam troszkę zawiedziona... Muzeum jest niewielkie. Trafiłam jedynie na wystawę znaczków z wizerunkami postaci z bajek. Niewiele mi to powiedziało niestety. Na parterze duża kolekcja starych znaczków z różnych krajów. Dla filatelisty akurat ten dział może się okazać ciekawy.

    Unobtrusive, it surprises all the more with its beauty. This is Vávrův dům, where a collection of Czech and foreign stamps is kept. The first floor is used for temporary exhibitions. I must highly appreciate the effort to make the expositions accessible to the younger generation as well. The workshop using the classic dry needle graphic technique with Denisa Sedláková was unforgettable! I definitely recommend visiting. We left with a wonderful experience and postman-themed worksheets. All the staff were very kind and helpful. Thank you, we will be happy to come again!

    A must visit for every Postcrosser. You can get some cool Czech stamps and philately products and if you get lucky you might get a special postmark, too.

    Entrance CZK 50/10 Adult/Student. A very small museum mainly composed of stamps exhibits and a philatelic shop. The exhibits include stamps ČSR I-ČSSR-ČR, complete France collection from 1849 till 1989 and classic stamps from most EU countries, four personal collections donated to the museum. In the shop they sell postal cards issued before 2007 which are not shown on ceskaposta.cz

    (Translated by Google) Always courteous and friendly staff, regularly hosts interesting exhibitions, and the museum itself, small, but very good and interesting. Located in the former apartment building of a prosperous miller. Because of this, you can at the same time look at the frescoes and ancient fireplaces. There is also a mail library. (Original) Всегда учтивый и приветливый персонал, регулярно проводятся интересные выставки, да и сам музей, маленький, но очень хоооший и интересный. Расположен в бывшем жилом доме зажиточного мельника. Благодаря этому можно заодно глянуть на фрески и старинные камины. Есть также почтовая библиотека.

    (Translated by Google) Well as quite a few things in terms of mail but the stamps there is hafo it takes a lot of time but probably it is for people who are interested in admission is ridiculous to Prague. When you at the post office so gratis. (Original) No jako docela málo věci co se týče pošty ale známek teda je tam hafo to zabere dost času ale asi to je pro lidi co to zajímá vstupné je na pražské poměry směšné. Když si u pošty tak gratis.

    (Translated by Google) Beautiful small museum with friendly staff. Interesting exposition of stamps and actually everything related to the history of post offices. There are also exhibitions from other sectors of human activity. A little neglected museum, but thanks to this you have all the peace and time to see. Nobody disturbs you. I recommend. (Original) Krásné malé muzeum se vstřícnými zaměstnanci. Zajímavá expozice známek a vlastně všeho, co se týká historie pošt. Bývají tam i výstavy z jiných odvětví lidské činnosti. Lidmi trochu opomíjené muzeum, ale díky tomu máte na prohlídku vše klid a čas. Nikdo vás neruší. Doporučuji.
