The scientific examination of the mountains has been carried out since 1962 with the help of outside contributors and members of the permanent staff of the museum. This program is called: "The Natural View of the Bakony". The achievments, that is all the geological, botanic and zoological materials collected during the past decades are displayed in our permanent exhibitions.
A taste of the exhibition
In the glass-case between the three dioramas we exhibit the typical species of the beech and oak woods with the help of the coloured watercolour replicas of Vera Csapody.

In one of the rooms the big mushrooms of the mountains are arranged according to the four seasons in three dioramas. The mushrooms are genuine. The preparations were made by the so called freezedry method.

In one of the glasscases we can see the species of the water-marshlands, the moist woods and the arid dolomit land. In the terrarium we can have a look at the everyday life of the frogs, lizards and grass snakes. Those interested can obtain a detailed description of the mountains' rich fauna. We gave room for those bird spices in the red glass-case which have become extint in the mountains during the last few decades or their number has decreased so sharply that their existance is endangered today.

Besides all these we can see the owl, the king-fisher, the mouse and the hamster and so many other spieces.
