National Agricultural Museum

The foundations of the current museum building likely date back to the 17th century when,
alongside the construction of the church under Prince Karl Eusebius of Liechtenstein, the Lower
Castle in Valtice was also formed, and the complex of several buildings served the economic
administration of the Liechtenstein estates. At the end of the 19th century, the appearance of the
houses on the square was unified, and the museum building underwent significant reconstruction. In
the mid-20th century, this building housed the dormitory of the State Agricultural School, but in the
1970s, the building was closed and began to deteriorate. In the 1990s, the National Agricultural
Museum acquired the building, and after extensive renovations, the exhibition from Lednice Castle
was relocated here in 1994. The building underwent another major renovation in 2018 and 2019,

when, thanks to European funds, three new exhibitions were created, and the conditions for
curators' work and the preservation of collection items in the depots were improved. This project
won third place in the "Museum Project of the Year 2019" category at the Gloria musaealis
competition.
