Fascinating History - A fantastic couple of hours spent wandering around this historic place. Definitely get the audio tour narrated by some members of the Lobkowicz family. One of the best things I saw was a music manuscript which had been edited by Mozart. Real history.

Very nice museum - Very beautiful collection including a very beautiful Bruegel. Part of the museum is dedicated to music (you can see a Guarneri cello there!). One of the best museums in Prague.

Hidden gem - This museum is on the grounds of Prague Castle, and it’s a lovely escape from the ginormous crowds everywhere else in the castle area. It was pretty quiet when I went here, I even had the viewpoint terrace to myself. The audio guide is very interesting and there is a nice variety of artefacts on display

Exceptional collections - Private museum in the castle choir, with some pieces from the exceptional collections of the Lobkowicz family, presented by them in the audio guide. Painting, Music, Ancient weapons,…. With the added bonus at the end of the visit of a beautiful view of Prague from a terrace of the palace. Very welcoming and available staff.

Don’t Miss - Excellent Museum and Self-guided Tour - We enjoyed the public space at the Prague Castle, but this portion was by far our favorite. We saw it and went in since we heard good things and it’s on the Prague Cool Pass. Be sure to ask for the audio guide - it’s included in the ticket. Fascinating history of the area as told through the Lebkowicz’s family experiences. A good mix of art, some technology, and history. If we had time for only one thing at the Castle, this would be that thing.

Interesting and beautiful - Beautiful experience, it worth the visit. Especially if you get also to the Midday Concert. Lobkowicz Palace tells the story of Lobkowicz family and is full of family belongings : paintings, photos, porcelains, documents, etc. My personal favorite was the weapon collection. It is not very crowded so you can enjoy every exhibit in your own rhythm.

Lobocwicz Palace self guided audio tour - This is in depth history about the family. We paid for self guided audio tour. Very few artifacts/pieces on display. We could have better utilized our time elsewhere
