PopMuseum website

The PopMuseum is short for The Museum and Archive of Popular Music, a place devoted to Czech and Slovak popular music and its history as well as to archiving audio, written, and audio-visual records. Inside the museum, located in the Kastan cultural centre, you'll find databases, specialised magazines and literature about popular Czech music, as well as a whole library of audio recordings and video of performances. There is also a permanent exhibition of musical instruments, particularly electric guitars made in Czechoslovakia and a selection of keyboard instruments. Temporary exhibitions typically focus on a specific influential artist or movement in the Czechoslovak music scene of the past, such as the Plastic People of the Universe.

Cool museum! Prague's musical history is really interesting indeed, and the temporary exhibition on New Wave in the 80s was brilliant.
