Retro Museum Prague

Share

The largest retro museum in the Czech Republic, Retro Museum Prague, maps design, trends, and everyday life in the 1970s and 1980s in Czechoslovakia.

It covers more than 2,000 square meters and is divided into 15 exhibits. You will find here all icons of the 70s and 80s – from siphons and nets, through yellow portable Tesla, “céčka”, and Emgetonky to typical furniture from UP Rousínov or Hikoru Písek. This is complemented by a unique collection of tape recorders from the 80s.

In the main part of the museum, there is a replica of a block of flats with the original kitchen, including all Tesla appliances and used items, a fully furnished living room, a bedroom, and a children’s room full of “mončičáci”.

From two special exhibits, you can learn how dissent or communist propaganda worked and see the unique lighter-shaped listening devices they used at the Yalta Hotel in Prague.

Other exhibitions offer demonstrations of period electrical engineering, an excursion into the best of clothing from Svit, Elite, or Úbok, and a show of work coats, overalls, or aprons. There is also a period administrative office waiting for visitors.
