Muzeum železné opony

The Iron Curtain Museum in Valtice presents a long history of service on the state border, with a special emphasis on the period between 1951 and 1989, when the service was carried out by a border guard, and when an effort was made for the absolute impenetrability of the state border with the use of engineering equipment, curtains, almost to perfection. The Iron Curtain Museum is the first museum of its kind in the Czech Republic. The authors aim to present as much as possible the situation on the state border in the 20th century without unnecessary ideological depreciation.
