Czech Museum of Music

Of course a musically inclined country would have a music museum, and this one is a beauty. The permanent exhibition, called Man-Instrument-Music, focuses on musical instruments and their link with human culture. Stringed instruments play a big role, with both examples from famed French and Italian musicians on display as well as a special room devoted to the Prague violin-making school. Woodwinds, brass and percussion all get their due acknowledgment. Headphones throughout allow visitors to truly immerse themselves in the music. The museum building is a former 17th century baroque church.
