The Kiscelli Museum presents ten guarded treasures and puts in context with other installations using handmade paper in cooperation with Kata Bánlaki /Karcsi Papírboltja/ and the interior stylist Zsófi Szigeti.
The exhibition is officially featured in the Design Week Budapest 2015 program series this year's Home Sweet Home thematics , recalling the era in which the lord of the castle, Miksa Schmidt lived.
The Austrian tycoon purchased the Kiscell Trinitarian monastery and church in Óbuda building complex in 1910 to set up a showroom for furniture from his factory and also have a place for his art collection. In his baroque castle he hosted aristocrat visitors for whom he occasionally gave luxurious receptions. . In his will dated in 1935, he donated the building complex and the surrounding park to the capital city on the condition that the building - with the collection - would be opened as a museum to the public. Much of the heritage was however, auctioned off by the contemporary city administration, and the Metropolitan Museum was moved in the building, the legal successor of which is the Modern Urban History Department and the Municipal Gallery that have operated in the museum ever since.
