    Loved the expirience with the whole "Let the sound guide you" thing. Must see for Kafka lovers. But I noticed the prices in the shop are higher for some things than at the other places I saw them.

    You need to buy a entry ticket from Kafka museum shop which is in front of the museum entrance. You can find Kafka's letter and his biography in the museum. Approximately 30-45 minutes will be enough.

    Really good modern museum with some interactive stuff. The interior, lighting, all the sounds do reflect its dark atmosphere of the writer's biography and his vision of the Prague. Mysterious city!

    It is awesome to be here. Franz Kafka’s Masterpiece work “Metamorphosis” starts with these words: “Gregor Samsa, who wakes one morning to find himself inexplicably transformed into a huge insect.”

    Museum has small but subtle design,if you really expect to enjoy you need to know about Kafka's personality,life and impressions...

    Well-organized, interesting, beautiful&mysterious museum, it's worth visiting even if you didn't read Kafka, just for aesthetic pleasure. Don't forget to ask the lady on the entrance for a guidebook.

    If you have any excitement about Kafka, the museum makes you excited more. It's really small and you can be dissappointed by the size. They should start giving an audio guide as soon as possible.

    Good museum, in addition of showing pieces of Kafka's life, also try to pull us into his books atsmophere and to situate in Prague's history.

    Interesting if you've read some of his books. Quite small, most of the stuff is in german (without translation) since he wrote in german.

    the exhibited things themselves aren't so interesting but the museum itself is built up in a way that makes a simple walk a mysterious journey through Kafka's mind.

    If you love literature and the works of writer Franz Kafka, you must not miss this place. Here is where you'll find the writer's manuscripts, photos, drawings, and first edition books.

    Kafka is fascinating - this museum not necessarily. 100% text based ... Some interesting stuff, yet too pricy.

    Museum doesn't accept Euros keep that in mind.As though you learn a lot about Kafka there are not many personal things.It's a bit of a disappointing and it's more like a Poe museum than Kafka.
