Many people have been to London and have visited London Dungeon while visiting the Brit Capital. In addition we know that such dungeons can also be found in York, Edinburg and Amsterdam, so therefore many ask the question if there exist such a thing as Prague Dungeon. The answer is unfortunately no, but maybe this could be a great business idea for someone.

In London you can meet with Jack the Ripper, hear about the plague, meet up in the court room and get to know Sweeney Tood… so maybe someone should create someone similar in Prague, but of course with local stars and stories!

Many people come to Prague to eat and taste the traditional Czech cuisine. But for others the Czech food is not at all as attractive as a good hamburger. But, where can you get the best hamburgers in Prague? According to many people, one of the best place to go for a real good hamburger in Prague would be Hard Rock Cafe. The location is ideal, the price level is nice and the atmosphere is amazing!

During Communism everything needed to be done the way your leaders told you. In what way did Communism influence the museums? This exhibition takes you back in time and shows you and introduces you to life during Communism, from a bit different perspective.

Official description of the exhibition:
The Red Museums (“Rudá muzea” in Czech) exhibition shows the general development in the museums and their transformation under the communist dictatorship. It captures development of traditional and ideological museums, halls of revolutionary traditions or expositions of native houses and memorial halls. It also focuses on acquiring activities of the museums – such as documentation of building of socialism or revolutionary transformation of the rural areas.

The “Red Museums” exhibition deals with symbols, language and rituals, that were typical for that period – not just in the museums. Their use in particular exhibition projects demonstrates interpretation of the Hussite movement, the Great October Socialist Revolution, Munich, the Slovak National Uprising, and the “Victorious” February. All the topics are accompanied by collected exhibits of the Czech museums collected prior to 1989.
