The NTM Plasy Building Heritage Centre has been open for three years. The permanent exhibition of architecture in the building of the former brewery has already managed to reach thousands of visitors. The initial visitor traffic has been expanded with guided tours of the Court of Building Crafts, summer arts and crafts workshops, a number of programmes for schools, specialised courses and workshops.
The National Technical Museum also ran the “President’s Train”, which, thanks to the location of the NTM Plasy Building Heritage Centre, found one of its stops in Plasy.
The joy of this year was certainly winning one of the awards of the Forum of Slavic Cultures “Živa Award 2018”. The museum can be justly proud of the statement that the NTM Plasy Centre of Building Heritage “is becoming the leading centre of building heritage in its country and one of the pillars of the development of the cultural identity of the nation”.
With the end of the 2018 visitor season, three exhibitions are also coming to an end: ‘Inventor and patriot Ludvík Očenášek – from bicycles to space rockets’, ‘Dreams come true. An age-old desire to fly.” and “Treasures in Czech ceramic tiles”.
Their place will be taken in 2019 by a new interactive exhibition of statics, an exhibition on the Ejpovice tunnel and an exhibition associated with the 100th anniversary of the birth of Miroslav Zikmund. There is definitely something to look forward to.
