Muzeum nové generace, Museum in Žďár nad Sázavou, Czech Republic

Muzeum nové generace occupies the former castle brewery at Zámek čp. 8 in Žďár nad Sázavou. Its two floors hold an interactive exhibition: the lower floor follows Cistercian monks through dark forests to their first monastery, while the upper floor moves to the Baroque, with paintings and sculptures from the National Gallery in Prague, including works by Karel Škréta, Petr Brandl and Matyáš Bernard Braun.

The museum opened on 1 August 2015 in the former castle brewery (Zámek no. 8) and is run by the Kinský family. In 2016 it was nominated for the DestinaCZe award in the Fénix category for revived projects. Its exhibits were loaned by institutions including the National Museum and the National Technical Museum in Prague.
