This museum is located in a building erected in the late 19th century, which is said to be one of the most beautiful architectural structures in Budapest. It is not a grandiose edifice, but a picturesque site sunken in lush greenery.
The collections of which the permanent exhibition consists are of historical and ethnographic nature. In addition, the building is also home to sundry art exhibitions meant to promote national creators.
A namesake cafe is located at the basement of the building.
