The former Bohemian lands of the Habsburg Empire have long traditions of manufacturing and the independent Czechoslovakia of the 1920s and 30s was in the forefront of industrial design.
The National Museum has collections of machines, vehicles, clocks and cameras, but the departments of industrial design and of consumer industries, relating to office equipment and household appliances, are of particular importance. The museum also takes responsibility for some industrial sites and museums in other parts of the republic.
