The Demarcation Line Museum is a private museum owned and operated by the Czech Army Land Forces Foundation that hosts an array of history from World War II. The highlight of the museum is the collection of military equipment & vehicles, but there are also bunkers, memorials, and other exhibits.
In May 1945, the western part of the Czech Republic was liberated, including Rokycany, which is about 20 kilometers east of Pilsen. On May 7th, 1945, American troops arrived in the town. The Soviets arrived from the east on May 10th. As the two sides met, a demarcation line was then formed as the war came to a close; this is where you find the Demarcation Line Museum in Rokycany.
