As a county museum, we publish about Veszprém county to the world and about the world to people living in Veszprém county. We tell stories and show lives from the past, the present, and the future, because “historia est magistra vitae”, i.e. history is life’s teacher. The first finds of the oldest and most significant museum in the county were taken to the collection in 1903, and the building, hidden among the cool and shady trees in Erzsébet promenade, has been open for visitors since 1925. The collection of the museum with 330 000 items deals with ethnography, archaeology, history, fine and applied arts, literary history of Veszprém and Veszprém county, and there is a remarkable collection of numismatic collection too.
