The Museum has its seat in a historical building of the former ´Scholasticate´ at Šlapanice. Its collections include, among other objects, an inheritance collection of an important Czech landscape painter Alois Kalvoda, who was born in the town of Šlapanice. Part of the ethnographic collections of the Museum is a remarkable collection of embroidered stamps. Šlapanice and its surroundings are also associated with the famous "Battle of the Three Emperors".
