Budapest Historical Museum Budapesti Történeti Múzeum

The Budapest Historical Museum (Budapesti Történeti Múzeum; City Museum; Castle Museum) is housed in the south wing of the castle. It contains highly interesting documents, ceramics, wrought-iron work, textiles, household utensils and other objects which provide a comprehensive picture of life in the independent towns of Óbuda, Buda and Pest up to 1872.

In the Renaissance Room is a picture showing Matthias Corvinus and Beatrice of Aragon, his second wife.

In the Gothic Room are fine sculptures dated between 1370 and 1420, which were discovered during excavation work in 1974.

Other Gothic sculptures can be seen in the lower chapel. A beautiful 15th C triptych has been set up in the choir of the chapel.
