Muzeum Čtyřlístek, Comic museum in Doksy, Czech Republic
Muzeum Čtyřlístek is a museum devoted to Jaroslav Němeček's comic Čtyřlístek, housed since 2019 in Doksy Castle after opening in 2011 in the attic of the town cultural centre. Displays include information panels on the comic and its characters, life-sized figures, stamps bearing the characters, and material on the film Čtyřlístek ve službách krále.
The comic Čtyřlístek, by Jaroslav Němeček, had passed 500 issues when the museum opened on 11 December 2011 in the attic of Doksy's cultural centre. Němeček initiated it in 2009, partly because Doksy is his model for the comic town Třeskoprsky. In 2019 it moved to Doksy Castle.
The museum displays rooms designed like the homes and workplaces of the comic characters, such as Fifinka's kitchen and Myšpulín's workshop filled with gadgets. These themed spaces show how the characters lived and worked in Czech children's stories.
The museum operates on a seasonal schedule, with daily hours from 10:00 to 17:00 during summer months, while winter visits require advance reservations for groups. It is best to check opening times before visiting and to plan ahead if you want to go during the colder months.
The comic town Třeskoprsky is Doksy itself, the pond Blaťák is Máchovo jezero and the castle Bezzub is Bezděz; author Jaroslav Němeček drew inspiration from his cottage in the Máchův kraj region. A 12 km educational trail with the four characters, opened 1 April 2012, circles Máchovo jezero from Doksy through Staré Splavy.
