The angular grace of 1920s cubism is apparent in the minimalist and abstract lines of the sculptures, paintings, furniture, ceramics and architecture on show at this small but delightful museum. Cubism in the Czech Republic permeated all aspects of design, applied arts and graphics, which is beautifully illustrated by the variety of exhibits. The House at the Black Madonna, which houses the museum, was built in 1911 as a department store and is itself a monument to Cubism.

Very interesting museum in a beautiful space - the building is as pretty inside as out. The Musuem Shop has some beautiful reproduction pieces which are very tempting! Well worth the entrance fee. There is a restaurant on the first floor which I didn't visit, the museum collection takes up floors 2,3 and 4. Each exhibit is well explained in English, together with background information on cubism. Best of all - hardly any tourists!
