The Ethnographic Museum in Budapest is one of the largest, most important museums in Europe, with a diverse collection of more than 200.000 ethnographic artifacts, as well as historical photographs, manuscripts, folk music, films and videos of both Hungarian and international cultural significance. It is noteworthy that the Hungarian collection of the museum contains the largest material on traditional Hungarian folk culture not only in Hungary but throughout Europe.
More than half of the collection was collected between 1874 and the end of the First World War. Since 1973, the Ethnographic Museum is housed in the building of the former Palace of Justice. The project in the style of the Grunder era was prepared by architect Alajos Hausmann. The impressive museum building is located across the street from the Hungarian Parliament, in Kossuth Square.
