Museum of Glass MOSER
About This Museum
Stepping into the Moser Museum feels like entering a living storybook of Czech crystal. I was immediately struck not just by the glittering finished pieces, but by the palpable sense of history in the air—this is where art meets fire and breath. The heart of the experience is undoubtedly watching a master glassblower at work, their skilled hands coaxing molten silica into delicate, shimmering forms right before your eyes. It’s one thing to see these pieces behind glass, but another entirely to witness the sheer human effort and artistry that goes into every single one.
Collection Highlights
Don't miss the stunning 'Moser Green' vases from the late 19th century or the breathtakingly intricate Alexandrit glass, which changes color from ruby red to purplish-blue depending on the light. The collection of historic drinking sets, some designed for royalty, showcases designs that feel both timeless and surprisingly modern.
Visitor Information
It's tucked away in the Dvory district of Karlovy Vary, easy to reach but feels like a local secret. Definitely time your visit to catch one of the live glassblowing demos—they're what make this place truly unforgettable.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a functional, red-brick building that feels like part of the original factory complex; it's unpretentious and industrial on the outside, which makes the treasures within even more dazzling.
