An interesting peek to the history of sex equipment, machines and the culture behind them. The tour includes old photography + old and modern sex equipment, clothing and machines + descriptions and instructions for everything. There's also a cinema room. The tour goes theme by theme - phalluses, masturbators, bdsm gear, chastity devices etc. The info boards are a little short, I hoped to get a better understanding of the time line and evolution of different cultures. On the other hand there's little consistent information available about these subjects, so it was educational nonetheless. Also would've wanted to know the background info of the photography. A good spontaneous attraction that doesn't take too much time. A full round takes less than 1 hour. Brace yourself for a lot of reactions like "Ooh", "Aah", "Okay...", "WHAT?!" and then remember sex comes in as many forms as do people and it always reflects the society and culture we live in.

Our cultural Prague outing. We, who normally visit shops and see museums from the outside took a gander on this one. Three floor filled with sex toys and machines from through the ages - a 20,000 yrs old dildo which was carefully put together by archaeologists; just imagine their faces when they slowly realised what it was they were crafting. We saw loads of toys and medical machinery. We also saw the pre-runner of the travelling 'peep-show', anti-masturbation devices, BDSM masks, flurry dolls, swings and body jewellery. I have to say.. those Victorians were ..eh.. very inventive. To top it of we spent some time watching vintage Spanish porn in the downstairs cinema. Together with a group of other visitors. Surreal.

Quite a random exhibition with not too many information. The pieces displayed are quirky and quite fun to see, but there is no historical background. The exhibits seem to be displayed at random. It seems as though at least 70% of the stuff is for women's use, so that is also interesting. There is a cinema at the end, where you can see a spanish silent porno movie from the beginning of the 20th century. I found it very interesting to see how very different the perception of beauty and erotica where a century ago. The amount of tourists and teenagers giggling destroys the experience though. A refreshing break from your usual museum experience, and it works until 11pm, so you can see it when everything else closes.

Viele der Rezensionen sprechen ausschließlich von Sexspielzeugen, die im Museum ausgestellt werden, allerdings würde ich meinen Kommentar gerne den vielen gewaltvollen sexualisierenden Praktiken widmen. Im Museum geht es nicht nur um sexuelle Praktiken, Vorlieben & pleasure sondern hauptsächlich auch um gewaltvolle Antimasturbationspraktiken wie z.B. den abgebildeten Gürtel gegen Masturbation von Kindern und Jugendlichen. Die Abbildung dieser Gewaltpraktiken ist enorm wichtig in der historischen Geschichtserzählung genauso wie die Erzählung über sexuelle Vorlieben. Denn wenn wir uns fragen, warum Sex und sexual pleasure heute noch eines der schamvollsten Themen ist, finden wir unsere Gründe unter anderem in diesem Museum abgebildet durch diese gewaltvollen Bestrafungen für Masturbation oder jegliche Art von Selbstbefriedigung. Außerdem finden wir viele weitere Ausstellungen dazu, wie Frauen sich mit z.B. Stahlpanzern vor Vergewaltigungen durch Männer schützen mussten und eine Reihe an christlich religiösen oder strukturellen Vorstellungen davon, dass Frauen sündigen wenn sie in sexuellen Kontakt mit sich selbst oder Männern treten. Wie bereits in anderen Rezensionen beschrieben fehlten mir auch teilweise bei einigen Ausstellungen Jahreszahlen, Quellen und geografische Angaben. Außerdem sind alle Darstellungen im Museum sehr hetero- und cisnormativ und es gibt keine Darstellung von homosexuellem Begehren oder trans Körpern, die ja durchaus zu jeder Zeit in der Geschichte existierten. Wer an historischen Kontinuitäten von Sexismus und patriarchaler Gewalt interessiert ist oder einen Einblick in das heterosexuelle Begehren in der Historie gewinnen möchte, ist hier definitiv richtig. Auf jeden Fall einen Besuch wert.

Very interesting place! Super risque yet very clean and the collection was massive with multiple floors of exhibits. We spent about 45 minutes here and had alot of fun looking at all the items displayed. Right off Old Town Square it was easy to get to and did not take us outside of the area we were site seeing in. Lots of gawkers at the front of the museum but once we got through them inside it was easy to get around with lots of space. They also had a souvenir section with some pretty dirty little magnets and the like that went perfect with the rest of the museum.

Visited the Sex Machines Museum and found it both fascinating and unexpectedly funny! Beyond the quirky and humorous side of it, the museum offers a deep dive into the historical context of these machines and their evolution over time. The exhibits are surprisingly informative, and it’s eye-opening to see how creative people were back in the day. The location is great, making it easy to pop in while exploring Prague. If you’re open to something different and want to mix some laughs with a bit of history, this place is definitely worth a visit!
