Communism Museum


The museum focuses on the totalitarian regime from the February coup in 1948 to its rapid collapse in November 1989. The theme of the Museum is "Communism- the Dream, the Reality, and the Nightmare" and visitors will be treated to a fully immersive experience. Immersive factories, a historical schoolroom, an Interrogation Room, or the video clips in our Television Time Machine
are all part of the experience. This museum was really quite scary. The blatant brainwashing control and the over idealism of the rulers was totally gross. What amazes me is
that the Velvet Revolution just
happened. In the videos the people
were in color and wearing clothes I wore as a child. 1989 was only 21 years ago and the Czech Republic has changed so much. It amazes me how quick society has rebounded, and to an outside seems free from the trauma of war and nazi's and the regime of communism.
