The small shops and the bakeries were necessary part of the people of the villages and county towns. They were also important part of the sight of the settlements. The building in the collection originally was a peasant house of Tápé. In the 1910's a Jewish family bought it and converted the room facing the street into a grocery.

In the neighbourhood of the exhibition titled 'Forest as the temple of nature' a yurt stands. The visitors may see an extremely interesting exhibiton in the pavilion where two thousands years of the history of the Hungarians and nature is overviewed.

Among the towns of the beginning of the 20th century, Szeged had the largest population living in homesteads surrounding the town. In 1930 over 45 000 people lived in 10 000 homesteads of 10-15 acres around Szeged. The homestead we present at our exhibition, the placement and characteristics of the buildings was significant at the turn of the 19-20th centuries. The premises of the house followed the room-kitchen-room-chamber order.

The cartwright worked in the back part of the building. This trade was closely connected to the smiths since they worked together on making a coach or cart. Next to these two shops full of tools of saddlers and harness are displayed. An oil canvas, which was the sign of a master of Szeged 90-100 years ago, is also shown.
