    I discovered the museum by chance during my visit to Prague. From the outside you could see that it was a museum about the First World War. After reading Erich Maria Remarque's "Nothing New in the West" I was very interested in visiting such a museum. Inside the museum we met employees who explained to us that there was no information about the exhibits in German and only a little in English. But you can show us a film with German subtitles that explains everything. Said and done. The film explained the more precise topic of the museum, Czech legionnaires during the First World War. They first fought alongside Russia and then against Russia and were always the bravest, bravest and best. OK. The actual museum contains many exhibits from the First World War, e.g. uniforms, weapons, equipment. There is also a replica of a trench to visit and enter. At the end there were boards with information in Czech. Despite the information only being in Czech, this museum is worth a visit. Admission is free because the museum is supported by an association and government funding. A donation is possible, but you are not asked to do so. The exhibits shown are interesting for anyone who deals with the First World War. Since you can skip the last part, you can get through it in about an hour. 5 Stars.

    Absolutely amazing museum. We were warmly welcomed right at the reception. I have to say that I liked everything very much and they got me uniforms and awards. 1.2. and 15.2. 2023 from 6 p.m. there are museum evenings with free admission. You can buy souvenirs here 😉

    It's really one of the top 2 museums in Prague the other being the free military museum. While a lot is on Czech, if you let the owner know your language he gives you little books to follow along with. We were fortunate enough to go at an empty time and he played us a video in English/Japanese subtitles so we could learn more. Thank you again.

    I was very satisfied with the visit! Beautiful exhibition and free entry, but you can donate to the fund.

    Fantástico descubrimiento en Praga, museo dedicado a las Legiones checoslovacas que participaron en la 1 Guerra Mundial, video explicativo en español, muchos objetos militares históricos e incluso una recreación de una trinchera con nido de ametralladora. Entrada gratuita, la voluntad. Muy recomendable para amantes de la historia.

    Very informative site with free entry. In addition to lots of text and pictures, the visitor can enjoy a lot of period monuments in relative peace without a large number of other visitors.

  • 5/5 Dominika H. 1 year ago on Google
    Moc pěkné muzeum, sice trošku zapadlejši i když je v centru Prahy, ale pokud jde o výstavu tak ta opravdu stojí za to. Můžeme vidět přehlídku granátů, zbraní, uniforem, ale třeba lopat. Mě osobně nejvíce zaujali uniformy. A také můžeme vidět dopodrobna rozebranou nejvýznamnější bitvu Československých legií U Zborova .

    Male, ale prostorově skvělé řešené muzeum. Informačně hutné se zajímavými exponáty i zpracováním expozice.

  • 5/5 Stella N. 1 year ago on Google
    Невероятно интересная выставка, столько узнала об истории чехословацких легионеров, даже не думала, что многие воевали на стороне России в Первой мировой войне. Прекрасная выставка оружия, некоторое можно даже потрогать. Всем рекомендую зайти!

    The museum is really great. Admission was free and you could learn a lot about the Legion. We were in the museum for over an hour because there is always something new to discover. Strong recommendation 👍

  • 5/5 I G. 10 months ago on Google
    Музей понравился: стенды с фотографиями, оружием, знаками различия чехословацких войск, существование которых определило право народа на национальное государство. Можно взять в руки винтовку, одеть каску легионера, попробовать поднять пулемёт "Максим", посмотреть 20-минутный фильм об их участии в гражданской войне в России. Вход бесплатный.

    Velmi dobře zpracovaná expozice, informačně dost nabitá. Kdo si chce přečíst všechno, aby si udělal aspoň 3 hodiny času.
