Anthropos Pavilion

The Anthropos Pavilion is a museum in Pisárky dedicated to prehistory and early human settlements, displaying archaeological finds from Moravia and across Europe. The collections include stone tools, art objects, and remains from different periods of human history.

An archaeology professor founded the concept in 1928 with an exhibition on human origins, after which the current building was constructed in 1962. This development reflects growing scientific interest in European prehistory.

The exhibition shows how early people lived and worked in the region, focusing on hunting techniques and crafts from different time periods. Visitors can see how everyday tools and art forms evolved over thousands of years.

The museum is open Tuesday to Friday from 9:00 to 17:00, with weekend visiting hours starting at 10:00. Plan about two hours to walk through the exhibitions.

A highlight of the exhibition is a life-size reconstruction of a woolly mammoth with a calf, giving visitors an immediate sense of these extinct animals. This replica helps visitors understand the size and shape of these ice age giants.
