National Technical Museum: Entry Ticket

Step into a treasure trove of invention and ingenuity, where Prague’s greatest engineering feats, scientific curiosities, and everyday tech from past centuries sit side by side. The National Technical Museum (Národní technické muzeum), founded in 1908, has been telling the story of what makes us human through machines, experiments, industrial design and a lot more. Whether you're a science nerd, history buff, or just curious, this is one place you’ll leave inspired.

What You Will Experience

• Transport Hall: See vintage cars, classic bicycles, motorcycles, steam locomotives, even aircraft overhead — including Jan Kašpar’s 1911 plane, and Czech racing legends.

• Mining & Metallurgy: Descend into a mock coal or ore mine, learn how metals like iron shaped society, and explore tools and machinery that powered the industrial age.

• Astronomy & Time Measurement: Marvel at sundials, telescopes, and celestial globes; see how people measured time through the ages — from ancient devices to precise watchmaking.

• Home Technology & Printing: From old washing machines, irons, sewing machines to letterpresses and printing presses — it’s a nostalgic tour through domestic life and the evolution of media.

• Interactive Exhibits & Kids’ Playrooms: Let your inner child build with Merkur construction sets, experiment with game-technology displays, and explore hands-on exhibits that make tech fun.

• Architecture, Engineering & Design Gallery: A visual journey through Czech design styles from the 19th to late 20th century — Art Nouveau, Cubism, Functionalism and more — with models, blueprints, photos that show both form and function.
