Pardubice Castle - The East Bohemia Museum in Pardubice
About This Museum
It’s not every day you find a Renaissance castle that was once a moated fortress, yet here in Pardukice, that's exactly what greets you. Stepping inside feels like moving through layers of time, from armored knights to the delicate shimmer of Bohemian crystal. The collections are surprisingly eclectic, weaving together the martial history of the region with its unparalleled artistry in glass. This isn't a sterile archive; it's a living chronicle where cannons sit in the shadow of gilded ceilings.
Collection Highlights
Prepare to be dazzled by the Czech glass, where vases and goblets glow with a liquid light. The armory bristles with pikes and early firearms, while a numismatist's dream unfolds in trays of historic coins minted across centuries.
