Hortobágy - Shepherds' Museum Pástormúzeum
Near the bridge is a Pastoral Museum (Csikómúzeum, Pásztormúzeum), housed in an old wagon shed. Here the visitor can learn something about the life of the "csikós", the horse-riding shepherds of the puszta (cattle rearing, everyday life of the shepherds and cattlemen, pastoral art, etc.)
In the "Körszín", a round building with a thatched roof, there is an exhibition providing information on the Hortobágy Puszta region.
