Pécs - Janus Pannonius Museum

 
The various departments of the Janus Pannonius Municipal Museum are distributed among a number of buildings in the town center. The Archaeological Department is housed in an 18th C plait style building behind the former mosque; it documents in an impressive manner the long history of human settlement in the Baranya region. Among the outstanding exhibits are the remains of a Early Stone Age settlement (c 60,000 bc), relics of a Late Stone Age culture found on Mount Mákar, together with Celtic and Bronze Age finds from Mount Jakab.

The Folk Art and Natural History Departments will be found at Rákóczi utca 15 and 64 respectively.
