This museum, situated in the beautiful Buda Castle itself, showcases the main collection of Budapest’s archaeological finds, displaying the evolution (and sometimes the destruction) of the various settlements all the way from Roman times up until the 13th century.
Visitors can travel back in time, to see part of the medieval Royal Palace of Buda. Authentic everyday document seals, gravestones,,  weaponryare on display. Other exhibitions depict events of more modern times. Tip: do not miss out on the Gothic statues of the Buda Castle inside!
