The Museum of Madness was established in 2013 as a private institute, spurred by the sinister presence of the Cmurek Castle, which functioned as a psychiatric hospital from 1955 till 2004. Nine years after its abandonment the castle became a nexus for a local initiative focused on a provocative reevaluation of madness. The museum's cultural and communal activities deal with the detabooisation and promote deinstitutionalisation.
