Museum of Arts and Design

Newly great works. The event is prepared by young people full of ideas and energy. They have great events for children and the public. And a summer camp for children, which of the suburban camps was great for children.

From the new reconstruction I am excited, a great coworking space of a café with books and magazines. Possibility to rent a lecture room and baby friendly environment. It's definitely worth a go for coffee.

Nice program, tea room cafe on the ground floor, inner court waiting for the use of this space. What is missing is the barrier-free access (see photo). Toilets on the 1st floor, accessible by spiral staircase (see photo).

Best relaxation, super opening and accompanying program. It can be seen that the whole team is working to attract as many people as possible and it works! Really level!

Very valuable exhibits in a relatively small museum.

Beautifully repaired gallery in the city center, great exhibition Krajinow we were very excited. I also like other events that the museum does. Thank you very much :)

A beautiful Art Nouveau space full of contemporary art. Great coffee!

The Museum of Art and Design of the City of Benešov is located on Malaya Square at house number 74. It was founded in 1990 and was originally called the Museum of Art of the City of Benešov. In 2000, after the transfer of a rich design collection, the museum was renamed and received its current name. The building, which now houses the museum, was built in 1904-1905 by the Benešov u Prague Regional Commercial Savings Bank in the Art Nouveau style, designed by the architect Marcel Dusil. In 1992, an exposition was placed here, open to the general public. The exhibition spaces of the museum are thematically dedicated to the history of the city of Benešov and its environs, the sights of the region and art objects, as well as the artists who lived and worked here. The museum also has a rich ethnographic exposition, where traditional Czech clothing, textiles, furniture, glass paintings, as well as folk plastic items are of particular interest. In 2017, the museum was closed, mainly because it did not meet the requirements of a modern museum institution. Within two years, both the complete reconstruction of the building and the concept of the museum itself took place in it. The museum itself has eight permanent exhibitions open on a permanent basis: 1. Modern Czech painting. 2. Modern Czech plastic. 3. Czech and Slovak photography of the 19th and 20th centuries. 4. Personality drawing and graphics. 5. Czech art of the 20th century. 6. Czech graphic design of the 20th century. 7. Global Visual Grammar 8. Laboratory of colors and shapes.
