The museum is located in the Baroque building of the Military Order of the Crusaders of the Red Star, established by Saint Agnes of Bohemia in 1252. The Crusaders of the Red Star have been the keepers of the bridge since time immemorial.

You will see the world’s largest and most detailed model of the Gothic bridge’s construction, which features several hundred figurines of workers and dozens of models of construction machinery. You will also discover what Prague’s Old Town looked like in the Middle Ages.

Following the museum experience, enjoy the most beautiful panoramic views of Prague Castle and Malá Strana and relax in a lovely Baroque cafe.
