Is National Museum worth it on a budget?

Worth itOn a budget

On a budget, National Museum still earns its price.

~290 CZK

The building itself — grand staircase, domed pantheon, restored interiors — is arguably more impressive than much of the collection, and the rooftop/dome views are a hidden treat. The catch: the natural-history and history exhibits are solid but conventional, and the full ticket plus the connected New Building can be a lot of museum for a sightseeing-light trip. Strong for the architecture and a rainy afternoon.
