Museum of Romani Culture

Well-executed, interactive and informative museum. The information on the wall is in Czech, but booklets are available in German and English. I enjoyed the exhibition, it gives a throughout explanation of the origin, history and lifestyle of Romani culture.

An astonishingly intriguing place full of mysteries about one of the most poorly-known and understood cultures. All the four sections provide valuable and unforgettable insights into the culture that is so often misinterpreted.

One of the best museums I've seen in the Czech republic, but, yes, it's in an area that is "not that nice" in the sense that it's poor and populated by a lot of gipsies. My Airbnb was very close by and in my week in Brno it did feel at times a bit too roudy. The reason the museum is in this area is to raise awareness and some of the proceeds go to children of the area. The dudes who showed me around were Rromani as well and, of course, they were the nicest guys, even if, the guy selling the tickets looked like a Bulibasha :)) No, seriously, the guys were great and the curation of the museum is EXCEPTIONAL!

They have an audio guide basically telling the story, it is surprisingly unbiased and sticks very closely to facts. I used my own knowledge as Romanian to gauge any bias and, I will admit, there is zero when it comes to portraying the gipsies in the Danubian Principalities and Transylvania so I'm pretty sure the rest of the narrative is correct, I personally felt enriched by the info

In terms of exhibits, don't expect much, it's one of those modern museums that relies more on story telling and providing an experience than showing you lifeless objects. Nonetheless, there are some cool examples of Rromani art

I ended up staying close to two hours here and I must say it blew my mind. Hard to say I learned anything new since I already knew most of it, but to see such a place depicting the story of these people with such grace was an inspiration. I only wish Romania, who was an active part in the Holocaust, would allow something similar

10/10 recommended, if in Brno as a tourist be sure to visit. Sadly when I was there, I was alone for close to two hours, this needs to be more popular

Excellent museum about Roma culture and history. Lots of objects and stories which will lead you as a visitor to a history of culture, persecution, and resilience of an often misunderstood community. Very interesting to read about linguistic similarities with Hindu/Bengali and the origins of Roma being referred to as Egyptians or Gypsy's. Museum is also based in a neighborhood near the community. Apparently the neighborhood has a bit of a reputation but I felt very safe and welcome.
More information could be provided in English, since without th booklet I received it would have been difficult to read much since almost all the signs are in Czech.

I think this is the most interesting museum in Brno which is definitely worth the short trip from the city centre. Not only you learn some new things about Roma culture and history but you also support the community. The exhibition is colourfull, narrative, interactive and is tailored both for adults and kids.

Loved it! Very informative and sensitive

Though it gets a little long toward the end of the museum in the post-WWII section, the early parts of the museum are wonderfully curated. For a people who have been repeatedly shat on, the information and displays remain incredibly unbiased and simply state facts.

Provides behind-the-scenes looks and insights into the state of being the outsider or other. A museum not to be missed and easily the best thing in Brno.

Absolutely worth a visit. This is a small museum which packs in a lot of information and interesting artifacts in a modern, accessible format. Everything is in Czech, but there's an English (or German) dial-by-numbers audio guide with 70+ entries.

Very interesting museum. You can get to know a lot about the culture, music, artifacts, etc.

Had a great and informative tour which brought the exhibition to a new dimension.

This museum is so well done! It is engaging, informative, beautifully set up. A little off the beaten path from the main square but you won't find another museum like it.

A fantastic experience, great exhibition on Roma culture, educative and fun. All set in a predominantly Roma neibourhood, so it is also a community center. Very authentic!

Excellent and beautiful museum about the history of Romani people. Would highly recommend for it's informational quality and attention to historical details. I learned a lot!

Such an interesting and well made exhibition! I would highly recommend it to people living in or visiting Brno. There’s an audio guide in English and German.

Very well done and fascinating. So much I hadn't known about the Romani people and their history. Would definitely recommend!

Amazing place with huge amount of information and freedom to hang out anf take time checking everything. However, unfortunately, English language isn't supported with media.

Great exposition, based on a historical timeline! There is a nice and handy textbook summarizing the story of Roma as well

Amazing museum! Very well put together, super interesting, beautiful and sad. Loved it! Everyone should visit!

So insightful. A full education it really is worth the visit

Very good, very complete. If you do the sound guided tour, manage at least two hours
