Port 1560
About This Museum
Tucked away on a quiet street in Český Krumlov, Port 1560 isn't your typical museum; it's a portal. Forget hushed halls and velvet ropes—this place feels more like stepping into a fantastical inventor's private workshop. The air hums with a sense of discovery, inviting you to touch, play, and simply wonder at the marvels tucked into every corner. It’s an immersive experience from the moment you walk in.
Collection Highlights
You'll find an incredible array of automatons and intricate mechanical toys that whir to life, alongside cabinets filled with curious nautical instruments and beautifully aged maps that chart unknown lands. The real magic is how these seemingly unrelated collections—from clockwork songbirds to astrolabes—somehow weave together a single, captivating story of human ingenuity.
Visitor Information
It's the kind of spot where you can easily lose an entire afternoon without noticing, so give yourself plenty of time. Don't be shy about asking the staff questions, either—their passion for the place is contagious and they often have the best stories about the objects.
Architecture & Building
Housed in a charmingly repurposed historic building, the interior is all exposed brick, weathered wooden beams, and cleverly integrated modern lighting that makes the old artifacts truly pop.
