The home of the former Haiduk leader at Kossuth utca 1 now houses the Haiduk Museum (Hajdúsági Múzeum). In 1870 a neo-classical north wing was added to this Baroque building. The extensive archaeological, ethnographic and local history collections are complemented by an exhibition of works by members of the local artists' colony.
