Urban Sketching: Národopisné muzeum

This time we are going to visit the Ethnographic Museum of the National Museum (Národopisné muzeum). You can sketch indoors, or outdoors.

Kinsky Folly, located in romantical Kinsky Garden between Prague quarters of Lesser Town and Smíchov, was built between 1827–1831 by architect Heinrich Koch in the Empire style. Since 1901, this unique summerhouse is seat of the ethnographical museum which is documenting traditional folk culture of the Czech lands – Bohemia, Moravia and Silesia.

The admission to the museum is free (for this day).
