Esperanto Museum in Svitavy, Language museum in Svitavy, Czech Republic
The Esperanto Museum occupies the Ottendorfer House, a red brick building with seven glass displays containing books, pins, buttons, and historical artifacts.
The museum opened in September 2008 in a building from 1892, established by American patron Oswald Ottendorfer and designed by architect Germano Wanderley.
Local Esperanto speakers initiated the museum exposition, collaborating with the Czech Esperanto Association to collect materials including Zamenhof's bust from Česká Třebová.
The museum features an interactive touchscreen computer system that provides detailed information about different aspects of the Esperanto movement to visitors.
The facility includes a small café in the back room where visitors can spend time while exploring the collection of 22,000 German books.
