Prague - Museum Kampa

The Museum Kampa, is housed in the former mill on Kampa Island in the Vltava River. A mill has stood on the island since as far back as the 14th Century, possibly even the 10th Century by some accounts. The mill was destroyed several times by revolutions, floods, and fire. The most recent set of renovations in 2002 - 2003 saw the premises turned into the Museum Kampa.

The museum houses the personal collection of Meda Mladek who collected works by primarily Czech artists. Many of the works are from the 1950s and 1960s, when Meda Mladek traveled to numerous Eastern European countries and purchased a variety of works, including paintings, sculptures, sketches and other pieces. The collection grew over the years with other contributors to the collection, and now includes works by František Kupka, Otto Gutfreund, and other Czech and Eastern European artists.
