The outer and inner castle system was developed in the 1540s. The passage between them was the Dark Gate which is still visible today. The outer castle was destroyed in 1702, but the gate continued to be used and was only walled up at the beginning of the 19th century. continue

The dolls are dressed in their original cloths complemented with accessories. Original furnishing of kitchens, living rooms, and shops can also be seen. The museum provides opportunity to present the Hungarian and the European folk clothing of the dolls. continue
The museum building
The Museum of Pataj was established in 1959 by the history teacher Pastyik István who was the manager of the museum for the next 40 years. There were only a few objects in the collection at the beginning. Objects he collected were placed in one of the smaller rooms of the Primary School. However, a few month was enough and the room was too small for the collection. Then, the manager singled out a peasant house with a barn. The institution bought it and renovated it after which it opened in the summer of 1962. The first visitors were the composer Kodály and his entourage. continue
The museum building
This museum, founded by the wife of Count Ferenc Széchényi with her collection of minerals, it is now home to 10 million items: rocks, minerals, fossils and animal, plant and human remains. continue
The permanent exhibition of the works of Tivadar Csontváry Kosztka (1853-1919) have been on display in this neo-renaissance building since 1973. The solitary talent of the turn of this century artist, originally a pharmacist, is the most prominent representative of plen-air. continue
Summer street in the open-air museum
Anonymus - whose statue is seen in the memorial park - wrote the book Gesta Hungarorum, according to which the leaders of the Hungarian tribes camped in this region for 34 days in order to determine the inner order of the new country. That is why the general public think of this place as the scene of the first parliament of the settlers. continue
Easter branch collecting in the Open-Air Museum
Visitors can sense the athmosphere of the original villages, as they walk up and down the streets and among the workshops, buildings and yards. Visitors can learn about crafts rare or completely forgotten by today. Traditional feasts, habits and foods of the village society are also represented. continue
It probably rings a bell if you hear about the doctor who served in the court of Emperor Joseph II of Habsburg. But who among the readers have ever heard of the origin of the first neon signs in Hungary? Alternatively, just from the top of your head, could you retell the story of the poster that was among the first to become popular nationwide? If you find an hour or so to study at this exhibition the chronicle of the Zwack family (set against the background of European history), you will get answer to those and many more questions. continue
