The library of the town had been functioning in the museum building till 1997. In October 1997 the permanent exhibition entitled "To the memory of Kálmán Csohány".

In December 1997 we opened the permanent exhibition entitled "The history of the cistercian order". The monastery, the house of the schoolmaster, the glassworks and the smithery were revealed by dr. Ilona Valter, who also gave much assistance in the arrangement of the exhibitions.

Since 1998 a natural science exhibition and the "Pictures from the history of Pásztó" permanent exhibition has been seen. Our youngest permanent exhibition is that of the Csohány Gallery, which was opened in December 2001.

In 1999 the Ministry of National Cultural Heritage awarded the the Museum of the Year prize (placed third) to the Pásztó Museum.

Medieval vine production in the Mátra
A taste of the exhibition
In the cellar of the schoolmaster's house we can see an exhibition demonstrating the medieval vine cultivation. Vine growing and wine production was flourishing in the vicinity of the town, but a pestilence at the end of the 19th century put an end to it all. In the gothic cellar of the schoolmaster's house we can see all kinds of vine-growing instruments. continue
