The City Museum in Protivín was founded in 1932. As it was stagnating in the 1970s and it was not active, the competent authorities decided about it incorporation into the then District Museum in Písek. It happened in 1981 – the exhibits from Protivín were included into the collection fund of the Písek Museum and processed according to the museum guidelines. On 6 June 1989, a permanent historic and ethnographic exposition was opened in the repaired building on the Protivín square, with one exhibition hall.After 2000 it was decided, thanks to support of the City Council in Protivín which provided and adapted other premises in the museum building, to build yet another specialized exposition entitled “Exotic Nature”. Since 2006, three parts of the permanent exposition have been created here: The exotic world of insects, the exotic world under the sea level and the exotic world of mountains, savannas, deserts and banks of rivers and lakes. In 2008, the last part will be opened, devoted to the exotic world of primeval forest and sea shores. |
