Currently closed and under going extensive renovations.

Well worth to visit! Its a bit hidden from the main touristical path, but shows a very interesting exhibition about Czech soldiers in the Austrian and Russian imperial armies in WW 1 and also a very good new designed exhibition about the WW 1 at all. Well worth also to see the part about the german occupation time 39-45. Unfortunately, the part about the interwar period 1918-1939 was closed without prior announcement!

Great museum! Cool military stuff is exhibited, the history is interesting! And I don't know if we just came at a convenient time but it wasn't crowded at all so that's a plus

Open everyday 10 - 6pm (excluding Mondays) and admission is free. It's about a ten minute walk from Florenc metro station. Every exhibit has an information board/sign attached in Czech and English. The ground floor is mostly related to the period in and around WW1, 1st floor around WW2. The exhibits range from uniforms, medals, artillery pieces, guns of all description, sabres, etc, from most european nations. If you like military history, a proper, old fashioned museum, where you can look at exhibits, not have to put up with screaming school kids, etc, then you'll definitely like this place. It does not look much from the outside but don't let that put you off.
