About event
As part of the tour, we will first introduce the oldest preserved funerals in our country. They were found in the territory of today's Moravia and told scientists a lot of interesting information. We will also introduce you to our collection of posthumous masks and castings of hands. Are you wondering what the afterlife has served and still serves? What prominent personalities have been taken over the last few years? You will find out during our excursion. You cannot miss the mummies and the associated mummification process. As part of the lecture, you will learn more not only about funeral habits from the distant past, but also get tips for the possibilities of modern burial.
