once you get inside it's worth the trek to find it. It covers a fasinicating aspect of the countries past and is a must see for anyone with an interest in czech history. The negatives of it is that it's lacking in film based history and is rather told through largely text. more

This is an absolutely fascinating and very well set-out museum, which explains how the Communist period came about, the experience of the Czech people under communist rule and how Russia eventually lost its grip on the country. The exhibition is accompanied by moving news footage of the Prague Spring and the death of Jan Pallach. Outsanding and not to be... more

This museum is definitely worth seeing while in Prague. It was jam packed with informative materials. There was a movie about Prague spring with subtitles that was worth the admission cost alone. more

This was an information packed museum, which took up a tiny area. Its really interesting if you like modern history, I thought it was a bit expensive, but I'm glad I went to see it anyway. more

We enjoyed an hour in this museum but felt the presentation of a life shaping subject was too dry. Far too many photo displays with long-winded explanations. What was missing was the personal perspectives which could truly have brought the exhibits to life. Although by no means propagandist, the American owners political views were at times intrusive and devalued a... more

Political history plays a huge role in the shaping of the Prague culture, yet is this the best that Prague has to offer on the subject? It's worth going only because I don't believe there is another venue that showcases the tumultuous history of the last 60 years in Prague. It was eye opening for my children. The visit somewhat... more

As others have commented, this is not a well presented or laid out museum. But it is the only way to get a flavour of Prague in the twentieth century, and the story is important, so it's worth a visit. It needs a serious overhaul though. more

Fantastic small museum that is crammed with collections of Communist-era bits and bobs. Very informative (without an overload) for anyone who doesn't really know much about communism and it's impact on the Czech people, pitched well and covered in 6+ different languages. The video on the '89 uprisings in the small room is worth watching through the entire loop, with... more

This is a wonderful, quirky museum, full of pent-up anger at decades of communism and bad Soviet art, but with a great sense of humor. You think no one got hurt in the Velvet Revolution? Then you need to watch the movie. The gift shop is great. I love the museum's logo - a Russian nesting doll with teeth filed... more
