Permanent exhibitions
The permanent exhibitions are arranged according to a new concept: besides the treasures of Egyptian and Classical Antiquity, the history of European and Hungarian art until the end of the 18th century is displayed here. The collection of International Art after 1800 is on show in the Hungarian National Gallery as a permanent exhibition.
In case you are interested in a yearly ticket with unlimited admission to the permanent exhibitions, we offer you the PATRON or SUPPORTER category of the Friends membership.
