The Museum of Prague is a city-funded institution documenting the history of Prague from prehistoric times to the present, founded in 1881. Its main building on Florenc was built in Neo-Renaissance style to a design by architect Antonín Balšánek and opened in 1900; after a five-year reconstruction it reopened in early 2026. The most prized exhibit is Antonín Langweil's hand-crafted paper model of Prague from the first half of the 19th century. The museum also manages several other sites, including Clam-Gallas Palace, the House at the Golden Ring, Müller Villa, and Ctěnice Château.
