CHOTĚŠOV MONASTERY – an exhibition is being considered for the 2027 tourist season (April to September)
In the premises of the Chotěšov monastery (see photos), a new and unique exhibition of items from the time of the Monarchy – the Museum of Franz Joseph I – is planned from April 2027. These are three newly reconstructed halls. The municipality of Chotěšov managed to obtain funds from a subsidy to purchase fifty glass display cases for displaying exhibits. It would therefore be possible to place part of the collection from this Internet Museum of the FJI in them. The creation of the exhibition will have to be approved by the new municipal council, which will be elected in October of this year. Preliminary discussions on the duration of the exhibition are within the scope of the election period of the new council. But the time may also depend on the number of visitors to the new exhibition in its first seasons. The intention is to show the forgotten history of the arts and skills of our ancestors. The museum will display a wide range of objects – plates, cups, cutlery, books, paintings, medals, statues, … postcards, decrees signed by the emperor himself and more. All objects have a portrait of the emperor or members of his family. Many objects are also related to Emperor Wilhelm II. In terms of scope and content, this upcoming exhibition will have no competition in the Czech Republic. Therefore, dear supporters, keep your fingers crossed that the plan will be realized. Alternatively, help us in its implementation and support us.
For the FJI museum. Thank you.
