Museum of Communism: frequently asked questions
Is this the official Museum of Communism website?
No. Prague Ticket Guide is an independent visitor guide. The museum’s own website is muzeumkomunismu.cz. We are not the museum, we do not run it, and this is not the official site. The tickets featured here are sold by our partner Tiqets, a third party.
Where is the Museum of Communism?
At V Celnici 1031/4, in the Old Customs House, with the entrance on náměstí Republiky. It moved there in August 2017, so older guidebooks may give the earlier address on Na příkopě.
What does the entry ticket include?
Admission to the museum and a documentary of about 15 minutes, according to Tiqets. A guided tour is not included. Cancellation terms are stated on the card, and the museum’s cash desk closes 30 minutes before closing time.
What are the opening hours?
Every day from 9:00 to 20:00, except 24 December. The cash desk closes 30 minutes before the museum, so 19:30 on the current schedule.
Is there a guided tour that includes the museum?
Yes. The walking tour on our tickets page lasts about two hours, traces the effects of communism along Prague’s streets and includes the museum entrance; its card lists English, German and Russian. Read the card for the meeting time and the cancellation terms.
Can I take photos?
Photos and videos without flash for non-commercial use are included with a valid ticket, according to the museum.
Does the museum itself offer guided visits?
Yes, for groups: it takes about an hour and runs in English, German or French, and it has to be booked in advance, according to the museum.
