Népművészetek Háza
Folk Arts collection of Pest county. It's in one of the oldest preserved rural character, charming buildings of Szentendre. The basement makes unique this 18th-century building, because it gives the impression this is a storey house. The stone-walled cellar contents clay plastered three rooms with foot thick beams, spun twigs. The ceiling of the basement is covered with the original 18th-century wide plank elements.
Béla Czóbel, considered to be the most French of the Hungarian painters, is an internationally recognized representative of modern Hungarian fine arts. He was the first artist in Hungary to have a museum dedicated to him in his own lifetime—here in Szentendre, where he was also nominated as honorary citizen and where he probably spent most of his time besides Paris. The exhibition Czóbel Reconsidered in the freshly renovated museum on Church Hill presents the painter’s rich career in chronological order.

Kovács Margit Kerámiamúzeum
One of Szentendre’s most popular museums, opened in 1973, presents the lifework of Kossuth Prize-laureate ceramic artist Margit Kovács (1902–1977). The collection was donated in 1972 by the artist, who is considered to be the innovator of Hungarian ceramic art. The over 300 works, embracing the entire lifework of Kovács, are figural compositions. The second-floor gallery of the new wing presents the reconstruction of Margit Kovács’s home on Pozsonyi Road with her potter’s wheel. The official copies of her most well-known ceramics are on display in the last room. The blind and visually impaired can also touch these.
