Tatra Truck Museum, Automotive museum in Koprivnice, Czech Republic
The Tatra Truck Museum is an automotive museum in Kopřivnice housing around 80 trucks and chassis inside a former foundry building. The vehicles are displayed alongside engines, technical parts, and design drawings that show how they were developed.
Tatra began building trucks starting in 1897, and this collection shows their evolution across more than a century. A private collector brought together many of these vehicles over time, and the company eventually opened this space in 2015 to share the story.
The display shows how trucks shaped daily work and industry across the region over many decades. Walking through, you see vehicles that some people still use today, which helps explain why this factory and its trucks matter so much to locals.
The museum has information boxes and labels in several languages so visitors from different countries can follow along easily. Plan to spend a few hours here to walk through the collection comfortably and read about each vehicle's details.
The museum sits inside an old factory building that once produced many of the trucks now on display, so you are standing where these vehicles were actually made. This creates a direct link between the place and the machines themselves.
