Wax Museum
About This Museum
Tucked away on a quiet street in Český Krumlov, this particular wax museum feels like a cabinet of curiosities brought to life. You begin your journey not with celebrities, but by wandering through a remarkably detailed replica of a medieval town, complete with cobbled lanes and artisan workshops. The air is cool and still, almost church-like, which makes encountering the lifelike figures of historical titans and modern icons around the next corner all the more startling. It’s an intimate and slightly surreal experience that blurs the line between past and present.
Collection Highlights
The full-scale medieval diorama is the undeniable heart of the place, but you'll also find an uncanny Albert Einstein with wild hair and a thoughtful gaze, a poised Marie Curie at her laboratory bench, and contemporary figures like a strikingly familiar Nelson Mandela.
Visitor Information
It's located just a short walk from the main castle area, making it a perfect rainy-day escape or a quirky detour from the usual tourist trail.
Architecture & Building
Housed in an unassuming historic townhouse that blends right into Český Krumlov's charming old-town fabric, with simple plastered walls and a pitched roof.
