A unique collection piece of the Transport Museum was the main attraction during the Night of Museums in the Fiumei Street Graveyard. The restored, decorated Apponyi coach can be visited from 24th June, Saturday afternoon at its new and worthy exhibition place, in the pavilion of the graveyard – thanks to the partnership of National Heritage Institute.
We brought home the last Ikarus bus from Great Britain. The Ikarus 489 Polaris was designed and manufactured in the former Mátyásföld factory, and it was one of Europe's most innovative city buses back then. At the same time, this type was the last successful product of Ikarus for export.
Commemorating the "mermaid" cruise of Count Ödön Széchenyi, floodlight has been lit on Kossuth Museum Ship.
Creative workshop on rim tables, inspecting cargo bikes, designing the interior of future buses on seats, while resting on tram seats covered live-plant tapestry. These are only a couple of programmes that we had on the 22nd Museum Festival in May. Thank you for coming in such a great number, and for taking such an interest in our programmes! Amazing creative works were born in our museum educational workshop, where we created the future prototypes of environmental conscious, sustainable vehicles in the spirit of recycling.
