Museum of Communism

This is a really well done and informative history of eastern European communism, especially where it relates to the former Czechoslovakia. Very sobering and pretty heart-rending at times but balanced out by the tongue-in-cheek tone of the gift shop! You could fly round it in maybe 45 mins just focusing on the excellent exhibits e.g. example classrooms, apartments, offices, even motorbikes or you could take your time reading it all and it could easily take a couple of hours. All in all , would definitely recommend it if you're interested in the era.

Going to this museum was the best decision I made in my trip to Prague. If you are into history of countries you have to go there! I spent almost 4 hours here reading every detail. It’s perfect that they are showing the history of communism from the very beginning in Czechoslovakia and continue it as an engaging timeline. The tickets are super cheap comparing to insane tickets across Europe to get inside a church for 30-40€. As a student I only paid 290 CZK. I also liked the design of the museum from the darkness of communism to the bright side of Prague spring and the velvet revolution. Highly recommended🤞🏻💯

A powerful and eye-opening experience. The Museum of Communism offers a detailed and honest look into life under the regime, with real stories, artifacts, and visuals that bring history to life. It’s well-organized, informative, and thought-provoking — I left with a much deeper understanding of what people lived through during that era. There was no wait to enter, and I don’t think tickets need to be booked in advance. Make sure to stop by the gift shop — it’s definitely worth a visit, with unique items and well-curated books that complement the experience perfectly. Highly recommended for anyone visiting Prague and interested in history or politics.

I'm personally very interested in this time frame and despotic regimes so this museum was fascinating. Yes, this museum is criticizing the communist regime and is not impartial. However, it is presenting all the aspects of the Czechoslovakian society before, during and after the communist regime with a lot of details so your analyze and personal feelings will make the right opinion:) Last but not least: I really enjoy humour based on politics, so the goodies were enjoyable

+a lot of information +number of exhibits on display -a lot of reading required if you want to enjoy the full experience -weak souvenir shop Overall a nice museum offering a lot of experience with communism in Czechoslovakia. I was there on Friday roughly mid-day and there was quite a crowd inside.

Spent about 3 hours here our first day in Prague. We could have spent a lot more time here, but with only 3 days for the entire city, time is limited. Very educational museum, lots of lessons to learn, and as others have mentioned, it's interesting to see how people retain their sense of humor in miserable circumstances.

it was interesting to go back to story of the life of countries lived the the communist society under Soviet union, and the revolutionary heros standed to change the situation and the future of their country.. it is worthy to visit location and enjoy this journey inside

It is quite a small museum but some sections of exhibition is so engaging with the sound effect and the set up. If you happen to be nearby, why not drop by here for a visit.
