At the end of the 19th century many museums were established in Hungary. The suggestion of Flóris Rómer marked the steps to be taken, and the offers of various collector groups hastened the procedure. continue
The idea to establish a castle museum in Fülek came in 1941. The Franciscan monk Kelemen König formed a 'Castle Committee' to collect funds for the collection and to excavate the castle in Fülek. The archaeologist Dr. János Kalmár began the excavation works in 1944 but the war stopped both the excavation works and the establishment of the museum. continue

After a 4-month period of day and night work the museum was opened at a new place, in a new form, and under a new name: Police History Museum. The opening ceremony was accompanied by the speeches of dr. Zsolt Visy (Ministry of National Cultural Inheritage) and dr. Péter Orbán (National Police Headquarters). continue

Even ten years ago, the Village of Sukoró had streets where a lot of house had white walls and thatched roof. The Szilvás Lane beginning at the Episcopal Church that hosted the council of war before the battle of Pákozd in 1848 is just like that even nowadays. continue

Traffic started on the railway line connecting Budapest and Hatvan in the spring of 1867. The Hungarian state gifted Francis Joseph and queen Elizabeth with the castle and demesne of Gödöllő on the occasion of their coronation in the same year and from that time on, the royal couple and their retinue would regularly travel by train to Gödöllő. In order for the king to be able to travel by train from Vienna directly to Budapest, they connected two lines in the vicinity of Kőbánya station creating the royal track called like this even today. continue
Medieval Village
The main idea was to present the village that was excavated. The objects mirror the every day life of the villages in the Árpád era. Every house, furnace etc. are in their original size made following the structure and proportions of the findings. The material employed was those that were used in the era of Árpád. continue
