The stove-setter Antal Fruhmann (1908-1987) of Győr left his house and workshop in his will to the Xántus János Museum. A new exhibition pavilion was set up on the estate where the stove collection of the museum is shown. The workshop is shown as it is while the house is the home of the exhibition presenting the history of stove-setting in the town of Győr. The set of three exhibitions is an unparalleled collection of stove-setting in Hungary.
The stove museum in the Fruhmann House is also unique in Hungary of its sort. Its significance is shown in the fact that the Alfa Program supporting accentuated projects announced by the Ministry of Education and Culture.
On 20 September 2008 the exhibition opened near the shopping mall in Győr. It may become a determining cultural centre right by the housing estates.
A quality set of exhibition was put together in the Fruhmann House satisfying the need of tourists and residents of Győr. The exhibition lines up tools and equipment of a profession very popular in the past and increasingly popular in the present again when environment consciousness and the usage of alternative energy is an ever more important issue.
The display is also related to the vocational training in Győr where student study stove-setting and ceramics. It is also important to remember workshops of the past, those of Mágner-, Dachauer-, Magyary- and Fruhmann thus helping in rekindling civic identity in town. Those visiting the exhibition can experience what the expression "the warmth of home" hides. Products from the studio that closed only a few years ago can still be found in several homes at present but could be found in many more. Thus, personal memories evoked by them in many of the visitors.
