The aim of the programmes at the Centre of Building Heritage of the National Technical Museum Plasy is to show children and (not only them) building as a great unexplored world that invites to explore. Together with them we think, discover, touch, create. And of course we don’t miss the construction playground. Unless otherwise stated, programs are suitable for all ages, but we always tailor them to a specific group

Programs must be booked in advance.
