The Museum of Ethnography explores how everyday objects, dress, ritual and craft reveal the lives of communities in Hungary and beyond.
Collecting the stories of daily life
The museum's long history grew from the idea that folk traditions and material culture deserved the same serious attention as royal collections and fine art. Ethnographic research records both continuities and changes in people's lives.
A contemporary home at City Park
The museum's modern building beside Városliget gave the collections a new architectural setting. Its exhibitions connect historic objects to contemporary questions about identity and cultural exchange rather than presenting traditions as frozen in time.
