On 1st of November 2008,

the exhibition “1000 years of INKAgold – The curse of the gold”will be opened at the castle of Prague, the thousand years old residence of Bohemian rulers and Czech presidents. Before in Germany, 80,000 visitors have already been enthusiastic about the Incas and the fascinating Andean region.

Up to 90 original golden exhibits, very important to history of arts and initially coming from the Museo de Oro in Lima/ Peru, are the high spots of the exhibition. Now in Europe, an unique compilation of the Incas’ wealth shows masks, mugs, bowls and jewelleries made of solid gold dated from 400 BC to 1,500 AD. The golden exhibits are aglow with the magic darkness. Coca bags and enormous beer mugs bear witness to hallucinogenic ceremonies. Great burial objects give an idea of the rulers’ importance.

The exhibition in Prague takes place on the renowned and prestigious premises of the castle of Prague and is opened every day from 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
