Museum of history in Budapest
About
The Budapest History Museum is located at the site of former archaeological excavations. The museum's exhibition consists of numerous memorable moments of the country, captured in manuscript materials, items, and even ancient maps.
The museum building is divided into three parts: ancient, medieval, and modern times. Each of the departments contains a multitude of sculptures, coins, jewelry, and even precious stones, illustrating the life of the entire Hungarian people, as well as their religion and culture. The entrance to the history museum is preceded by two black angel figures, as if to remind us that nothing in this world is eternal, and only the exhibits live longer than the rest.

Jedynie mogę polecić to co widziałem z zewnątrz, a każdy krok robi wrażenia, jedyny minus niewielka ilość miejsc zamknięta z powodu remontu

The best museum in Budapeszt - really overworth the price you have to pay. Perfect for children too, instresting and interactive

Beautiful museum! Includes both Budapest`s history as well as a splendid overview of the Palace! St. Stephens Hall is a magnificent addition (the combined ticket is a must). Strongly recommended and worth every penny for the ticket!
