The Déri Museum in Debrecen opened to the public in 1930. One of the most significant provincial museums in Hungary became remarkable with its rich local historical materials and the universal cultural historical collection
of Frigyes Déri. The building of the museum – with the statues of Ferenc Medgyessy in front of it – is a jewel in the downtown of Debrecen. The member institutions of the Déri Museum are the Ferenc Medgyessy
Memorial Exhibition, the House of Literature in Debrecen, as well as the Military Cemetery with the Mausoleum.
Munkácsy Hall
“I wanted to depict God in human form.” – Mihály Munkácsy confessed about his works. The painter’s trilogy, which represents Christ’s suffering, can be seen in perhaps the museum’s most popular exhibition space, the Munkácsy Hall. The three monumental paintings
(Christ before Pilate, Ecce Homo, Golgotha) were first shown to the public
on 25th August 1995 at the Déri Museum, nor the trilogy could be seen as
a whole earlier by the painter himself.
