Museum - Bereg Museum

Csiszár Árpád founded the Beregi Museum of Vásárosnamény in 1963. The collection is hosted by one of the nicest building of the town, the Máthé mansion in 13, Rákóczi Street from 1970.

Our collection is listed nationally and internationally due to its vernacular material of a few thousand pieces. The material includes embroidery, textile, cast irons and the objects representing the people's school of the area.

The visitors of our permanent exhibition may see the rich material showing the characteristics of our region.
