The erstwhile Palace of Education built in 1896 now houses this excellent museum containing a colourful collection of folk art from Csongrád County as well as traditional trades. After the 1879 flood claimed many of the walls of Szeged’s riverfront castle built around 1240, the city demolished the rest. Behind the Ferenc Móra Museum you can see ongoing excavations of the foundation; for a closer look at the ancient subterranean walls, visit the nearby Castle Museum & Lapidarium , a small gallery with some archaeological finds.
