when:
A full year of hands-on culture is rolling out at the Kiss Pál Museum in Tiszafüred, one of Hungary’s oldest rural museums. Beyond its two permanent exhibitions, the museum offers interactive events, family days, and museum education programs tied to holidays and traditions, welcoming museum lovers, families, and school groups all year. It’s not just a look-and-leave experience—programs are designed to touch, try, and talk.
Visitors can step into the Nyúzó Gáspár Pottery Folk House (Nyúzó Gáspár Fazekas Tájház), part of the museum, where the once-popular Tiszafüred craft of pottery comes alive through preserved objects and an original living environment. The house shows how artisans worked and lived, turning heritage into a room-by-room story you can actually follow.
On February 27, the museum hosts a carnival-themed day for elementary school groups, capped by a winter-chasing straw effigy burning. The museum education session blends folk customs with playful learning—loud, smoky, and absolutely memorable.
