Sex Machines Museum

About

The Sex Machines Museum in Prague is a provocative and unconventional attraction located just steps from Old Town Square. Opened in 2002, it’s the world’s only museum dedicated entirely to the history and evolution of erotic mechanical devices. Spread across three floors, the collection features over 300 objects from around the globe, ranging from antique vibrators and BDSM apparatus to bizarre inventions like steam-powered stimulators and chastity contraptions. Exhibits are presented with a mix of irony and historical insight, offering a candid look at human sexuality through the ages. A small cinema screens vintage erotic films from the 1920s, adding a playful layer to the experience. While not interactive, the museum’s displays are visually striking and often humorous, reflecting both the ingenuity and absurdity of past sexual technologies. Admission is restricted to visitors aged 18 and over. For those with an open mind and a curious spirit, the Sex Machines Museum offers a memorable detour into the more eccentric corners of Prague’s cultural landscape.
