Busóház

TIME : 2016/2/18 20:18:43

This museum is the place to come if you’re not in Mohács just before Lent. It tells the story of the Busójárás festival, from its origins as a South Slav spring rite to a fancy-dress mummery directed at the erstwhile enemy, the Turks. The horrifying devil’s and ram’s-head masks are on frightening display.
