has a new prestigious member. It is the Museum of Ethnography of Budapest. It is one of the earliest ethnographic museums in Europe. The museum has been collecting, archiving, preserving, researching, and transmitting the traditional and modern cultural artefacts of Hungarian, European, and world communities since 1872. The museum is a collection of thoughts that serves as a rich and multi-faceted resource for learning about the world. It is an open cultural space, where past and present converge, where science and the transmission of knowledge conjoin, and where cultures and generations come to meet and converse.
