Starting from the Nyerges espresso of the Mátai Mátai Máta, the program leads to the interior of the puszta in the echoes of nóniu horses. Those who arrive can get to know the native Hungarian pets, their keeping, breeding, the world of the shepherds guarding them, the sachets that are loud with the whip with the rings and can admire the sight of the indefinite. After the program is complete, you can take a walk in the stallion’s stables, you can check in K. József Nagy, a potter from Nádaudvar, from whom the tricks of making black ceramics can be learned. Before or after the Pusztai carriage, you can visit the Nyerges espresso in the area of the stud for a refreshment or coffee, where it is a real curiosity to gain insight into the everyday life of the central stable of the stud through a glass wall. An interactive exhibition of the history of the museum awaits our visitors.
