Our exhibition focuses on people, the army and the fate, feelings of soldiers and their families. In the first part of the exhibition we show snapshots about the happy peace years of the town, when the soldier in the family photos was only completing his compulsory military service , and did not know the terrible world of the trenches yet. In addition, we will show some designs that were not possible to complete because of the war and its consequences.


Further along, the world of hinterland and the front will be dealt with on World War cap badges (formation marker), which strengthened the team spirit, and community. The museum has a collection of more than 700 pieces and the selection is shown for the first time for the first visitors. In addition to military equipment, weapons, uniforms, lots of photos and postcards, wartime laws, the iron ring and newspaper reports are about the daily life of those who stayed at home.


"Duty comes before life," was the motto for the Naval Academy. This motto leads the visitors into the next section of the exhibition, in which the history and expeditions of the Hungarian designed and built warship also called the 'Adriatic Titanic' really named SMS St. Stephen is reviewed. We show the footage on the sinking of St. Stephen and also archives of the work divers carried searching the ship by the cameraman Imre Karáth.


The historical exhibits consists of documents, and war monument often kept in family cabinets about the Serbian occupation of Baja (1918-1921).


The Nagy István Fine Arts Association of Baja and the Association Caffart announced a contest entitled 'I Leave it for my Homeland'. The works of art received are honouring the Hungarian heroes of the Great War.
