Why visit this place?

• The museum dates back to 1912, when a collection among the townspeople of Františkovy Lázně began gathering historical objects.
• Villa no. 194 was built in 1908 as a spa house for members of the German Provincial Fire Brigade Association, most likely designed by the architect Gustav Wiedermann.
• Allow roughly an hour and a quarter; the programme is aimed at lower primary, upper primary and secondary students.
• There are 26 more tips within 25 km, enough to build a full-day trip.
• The whole programme is indoors, so rain is not a problem.
• There is a dedicated programme for school groups, not just general admission.
