Městské muzeum ve Dvoře Králové nad Labem

Czech Republic

The Municipal Museum in Dvůr Králové

The Museum was founded in 1891. The first exhibition on the history of the city and the region was opened in 1923 in the building of the old town hall. After the war, the museum acquired beautiful premises in the Neumann Villa. It included a gallery and from 1965 the Textile Museum. In 1969, the villa became the property of the East Bohemian Zoo and the museum was temporarily closed. At the same time, it was decided to repair the area of the so-called Kohout's Court for museum purposes.
