There is no apparent reason for this display. true, the National Museum is not far, but then this museum is not specially related with Military History. And instead of being placed in front of the museum's facade, these artillery pieces are standing just by the main entrance of a cafe in a nearby park.
I spotted a Czech manufactured Skoda M37 (built in 1937), therefore, shortly before the German annexation of Czechoslovakia and a German SIG 33 built in 1938. Apart from the artillery, there is an armored rail car, a Jeep Willis and a M3 Stuart tank.
