When visiting this gallery , don't miss the bookstore at the entrance. There is also a nice coffee place and theater in the building.

Dmytro

Start straight from the French Collection on the 3rd floor. You'll find Sisley, Degas, Toulouse-Lautrec, Monet , Pissarro, Renoir, Cezanne, van Gogh , Gauguin, Picasso, Matisse, Chagall and others.

Julia Levenko

When visiting the Slav Epic hall, be sure to grab a leaflet (10 czk) - you won't be able to fully comprehend the paintings without it (btw, the title of the painting goes after the paragraph about it)

It’s all about visiting the “Slav epic” by Alphons Mucha. This is his masterwork and truly a monumental serie of 20 painting . Be ready for lines and to be pleased in enjoying this magnificent work.

Anna K.

Really impressive collection of Czech paintings . If you like 20th century art — try it.

Карина Струкова

There are books of Alec Soth, Thomas Ruff, Ai Weiwei, Diane Arbus, Philip-Lorca diCorcia, Sarah Moon, Boris Mikhailov. There are many good books with good discounts .

Vassilis N

Mucha's Slavic epic is must!Other floors include Czech & international painters !Get the combo ticket1(permanent exhibitions+Slavic Epic) Temporary exhibition Artists and prophets is not that great!

Rachel Price

Free for students! Went on a Sunday in October and it was almost empty. Great cafe downstairs with lots of locals.

This gallery founded in the 18th century is where you'll find a great collection of Czech, Slovak, and international art , including Gutfreund, Kupka, Monet , and Van Gogh . Closed Mondays.

Occupying an entire city block, this soviet-era building was transformed into a gallery that we could literally spend days browsing. The gallery now houses Mucha's Slav Epic, a must see.

Daisy

1st floor temporary exhibitions , 2-4th permanent, possibility of single or double ticket. Not only Czech artists , European art as well

A B

Surprisingly rich and varied collection, Czech sections are even better than international ones. Truly recommend this place.

Roberto Rojas Ortiz

Very ambitious collection of art . Not only paintings but many sculptures and installations. But the best is the building. A masterpiece itself!

Rudy Tauscher

Czech contemporary and modern art with a classic collection. There's a littlest with merch store and a lovely cafe downstairs

Rusty Shackleford

Great museum . Do go see The Slav Epic by Mucha. It was awesome. Museum building is nice and not so crowded

Niki Kálnová

Mucha's Slavic Epic is breath taking! Definetely a must see!!!

Henry Lee

Alfons Mucha's "The Slav Epic" is definitely worth the extra admission charge (180 CZK; 240 CZK with the regular exhibitions ). Mucha's paintings are in fact epic.

Евгения Агаджанова

Picasso, Sezanne, Pisarro, Manet, Delacroix, Sisley and many others on the 3rd floor. Good Czech painters of all movements. Mucha's Slav epic was temporarily closed.

René Oostdijk

The English leaflet you get to the Slav Epic is a misprint. The headline for the paragraph describing the first painting is missing. So for info on canvas 2 you'll need to read chapter 1 and so on.

Sigrun Aarset

Slav epic was moved to this gallery in 2012. It is really magnificent! Absolutely breath taking. Just go there!

Yiota Pap

The outside of the building is not impressive but once you get in you'll change your mind. Huge spaces and interesting collections. Worth visiting!

Rudy Tauscher

A huge collection of Czech modern and contemporary art with some foreign classic masterpieces. Great place

Didrik Viklund

Why this museum isn't in evry Prague travel guide is beyond me. Muchas Slav epic was probably the most awe-inspiring thing that I saw during my visit. Be ready to invest at least 4 hours here.

Iveta Krajcirova

Great art collection , up to date exhibitions , you can spent hours and hours just wonder inside the building.

Vast collection of paintings and sculptures from the past two centuries

Paco Pala

Beau musée, très bons choix d'expos temporaires. Au rdc , ne pas rater l'expo sur l ’Épopée Slave de Mucha, bel ensemble de toiles /images d’Épinal de plusieurs mètres de haut (nos ancêtres les slaves).

Elisa goPraga

Enorme museo che raccoglie l'arte moderna e contemporanea. Oltre ad artisti stranieri ci sono anche molte opere di autori cechi: per adesso è sede dell'Epopea Slava di Mucha che vale il viaggio.
