PASK Klatovy, Bohemia, Czech Republic
4.5 (23 reviews) Spent Ranking #3 in Pilsen Region Speciality Museums
A must in Klatovy, just delightful
The building is of beautiful clean curving lines, all white and with big windows. The collection of art nouveau coloured glass is just amazing: vases of all sizes and shapes, jugs, dishes, candle-holders and some other receptacles, all made in the early 20th century in the Loetz glassworks in the small town called today Klastersky Mlyn, some 40kms from Klatovy (the factory no longer exists). The white-coloured interior with its curving vitrines makes the presentation shine - just great!!! Even the small garden with wiry but very comfortable chairs and benches is very welcoming.

Wonderful collection of gorgeous Bohemian glass
This brand new museum - opened in August 2014 - contains a wonderful collection of glass manufactured between 1880 and 1940 by the leading Bohemian glassworks, Loetz Witwe. Quite apart from the high quality of the glass exhibited, which is exceptional, the display is beautifully designed to show the art nouveau and art deco shapes and colours to their maximum advantage. Anyone visiting Klatovy, and anyone interested in glass visiting the Czech Republic, should reserve a few hours to enjoy this feast of the glassmakers' art.

Glass Museum
If you love glass sculpture you will want to visit this museum. It is a short walk from the Town Square just past the schools. The outside grounds are lovely, the building is new and stands out from its surroundings. The front lobby has many exhibits.
