tour of a replica of a coal mine. On the tour (available in English), you'll
walk through a full-size recreation of a coal mine, with real coal on the
walls, steel and wooden supports, actual big coal mining machinery, mining
lamps and lanterns, plus models of traditional copper, silver and gold mines
in the Czech Republic. |

City Museum of Prague (Muzeum Hlavniho Mesta Prahy) The real reason to go to the City Museum is to see a huge paper model
of Prague, as of 1836. You can see everything in the old part of Prague
in incredible detail. There are also small historical exhibits of swords,
chalices, and medieval clothing. This museum is fun to do on a rainy day,
but isn't worth a special trip. Take the metro to Florenc, and the museum
is right there. |
