The Hungaryan National Museum is the most significant, and one of the oldest collection of Hungary. As the first museum of Hungary, it was founded by a highly educated peer, count Ferenc Széchenyi, in 1802, who offered his manuscript, map, numismatic and print collection to form a core material for a national museum to be built. The bill passed in 1808 which ordered the construction of the Hungarian National Museum (and library) which was designed and built by Mihály Polláck, one of Hungary's most well-known architects of his time, between 1837-1847. The monumental building of neoclassical design was opened in 1847, as the fourth largest museum in Europe.
The Hungarian National Museum has seven permanent displays. The History of Hungary from the foundation of the state to 1990 Middle Ages is the first one that is mentioned. This display covers topics such as the age of the Arpads, the Turkish Age, Transylvania and the royal Hungary, etc.
