In the rooms of the Archaeological Museum, opened in 1894, are exhibited cult objects, sculptures, fragments of mosaics, implements, vessels, coins and jewelry. Among the most valuable exhibits are the water-organ of A.D. 288, which has become famous, a Jupiter column, a marble Diana and a marble Minerva, a statue of Mithras and a written document dated A.D. 19 (the oldest piece of writing so far found in Hungary); gems and ivory-carvings have also recently been found.
In the Pillared Hall and in the Lapidarium can be seen some fine stone-carvings, including altars, gravestones and reliefs.
