Our experience:

We were in the Bohemian Garnet Museum for nearly two hours, learning about the Czech garnet we, frankly, did not know much about. From seeing the exhibition, recognising the false "garnet", watching the video about mining and production of jewels to finding our own little garnet (it was the best part!)... Recommend to all history and minerals lovers!
