One of the oldest regional museums in the Czech Republic, this institution is primarily housed in a former Jesuit seminary dating back to the Renaissance. Its operations are spread across several historical buildings, including the Church of St. John the Baptist with the Minorite Monastery and the Municipal Observation Tower.
The museum's most famous exhibit is the Krýza Nativity Scene (Krýzovy jesličky), which is listed in the Guinness Book of Records as the world's largest mechanical folk nativity scene. The collections also feature archaeological finds, Gothic sculptures, and folk art, alongside exhibitions focused on history, crafts, book culture, and the legacy of the singer Ema Destinnová.
