The world's greatest mysteries

The Aš Museum will host a rerun of the exhibition The Greatest Mysteries and Secrets of the World.

The authors of the exhibition concept, Ing. Mgr. Ondřej Rea and Mgr. Petr Lukas, will present a unique and normally inaccessible collection associated with the most mysterious objects from almost all continents. All exhibits have one thing in common – the circumstances of their creation or their purpose are surrounded by hitherto unexplained mysteries and secrets.

Despite the fact that this is a collection of copies, master and exhibition replicas, facsimiles and reproductions, it was very challenging to procure them for the exhibition. To secure all the exhibits, we connected with TOP experts not only from several European countries, but also from the USA, India, Australia, Honduras and China.

Probably the most valuable exhibit of the exhibition is a 1:1 replica of the famous Mitchell-Hedges crystal skull. The exhibit, like the original, is precisely cut from a single crystal of natural crystal. Interestingly, the original, almost 9 kg crystal comes from an area very close to the site of the discovery of the MH skull itself and, due to its size and purity, is among the absolutely unique crystals from the unnamed site in the past few decades. The uniqueness of the object is also enhanced by the fact that the original exhibit is not on public display anywhere in the world.
