About the Museum
The Glass Museum in Kamenický Šenov is a treasure of cultural that deserves our support for its renovation. Established in the late 19th century, it showcases the region's rich history of glassmaking, which dates back to the13th century when the first glassworks were founded in the area.
The museum features an impressive collection of glass artworks, highlighting the development of techniques such as crystal cutting and engraving that have made Bohemian glass famous worldwide.
However, to continue its mission and enhance visitor experiences, we need your help. Your generous contributions will go towards restoring and upgrading the museum facilities, ensuring that this gem remains a vibrant hub of art and education. Join us in our effort to revitalize the Glass Museum and keep the spirit of glassmaking alive!


Why you are invited?
Czech glassmaking is a world-renowned tradition, a symbol of our artistic heritage, and an irreplaceable part of our cultural identity. However, without restoration, the last remaining glass museum in our country risks being lost.
The collections, exhibitions in Kamenický Šenov are focused on engraved and cut glass and glass lamps (a tradition of production since 1724). Unique objects include glass engravings called lithophanes (we can elaborate) or a glass chair made by Elias Palme's company in the last decade of the 19th century for the palace of an Indian maharaja in Hyderabad (it was a whole collection of glass furniture, we can elaborate). The works of the best engraver of the 19th century, Dominik Biman, attract attention with their excellent craftsmanship. The collections include, among other things, works from the Kamenickošenov Glass Vocational School, which is considered the oldest glass school in the world (since 1856) and exhibits from international engraved glass symposia (held in K. Šenov since 1996).
Join us for an inspiring night where art meets purpose. Bid on exceptional artwork, connect with like-minded patrons of culture, and become part of a mission to safeguard our artistic heritage for future generations.
Your presence and support will make a difference. Let’s ensure that the brilliance of Czech glass continues to shine!
