The thached roof peasant house of Hajdúnánánás, which has served as an exhibition place for the past 20 years, is only a few minutes walk from the town centre. The building was purchased from its former owner by the National Monument Protecting Authority in 1980.

The former dwelling house in the centre of the settlement was built by the Grünberger family in the 1860'ies. It is a mansion house bearing the characteristics of the local popular architecture. The walls are made of mude bricks, the roof was covered by wooden shingles.

The renovated building and the exhibition was handed over in the year of the 1100th anniversary (1996) of the Hungarian conquest.

Since the birth of the Hungarian state (1000 A.D.) the city of Székesfehérvár, the Hungarian royal coronation and burial place had been one of the country's most important sacred centres. Saint Stephen (1000-1038) the first king of Hungary founded a privileged and independent priest association called the chapter of Székesfehérvár however the city did not have a bishop. The chapter was the guardian of the royal treasury and also the most important organisation of the state administration.

The Municipal Museum first opened on 11 November 1994 in the tarnished national building known as Ispita. In 1997 the Esterházy Palace, where the official residence is at present, was acquired. In 1998 the Margit Kovács and the Miklós Borsos permanent exhibitions were added to our programs in the original edifices. In 1999 we broadened our programs by the Graphics Workshop of Győr, in 2000 the first creative house, in 2004 the second creative house. From 2006 we also make use of the building of the Synagogue together with the university.
