National Museum of Agriculture, Agricultural museum in Letná district, Prague, Czech Republic.
The National Museum of Agriculture is an agricultural museum in Prague spread across multiple floors. Its collections display farming equipment, agricultural machinery, and exhibits about rural life, with specialized branches located at other sites throughout the country.
The museum was founded in 1918 but traces its roots back to collections from 1842. It emerged from one of Europe's oldest specialized institutions devoted to this subject.
The museum shows how people lived and worked in rural areas. The different sections tell the story of viniculture, beer making, and traditional farming methods that were common across various Czech regions.
The main building is located near Letná in Prague's district 7, with additional sites in several other cities across the country. Plan your visit by noting that each location features different collections and focus areas.
The roof of the main building is designed as a meadow with herb gardens and offers visitors an unexpected green retreat. From there you can enjoy a view of the city while seeing a working example of sustainable urban farming.
