At Whitsun (Pfingsten), the open-air museum is transformed into a place of living history. For three days, members of the Düppel Museum Village Association and travelling craftsmen will bring the Middle Ages into the present day in authentic costumes.
Let's spend a day with the inhabitants of the village from the early Middle Ages and recall with them the customs associated with the ancient celebrations of the holidays called Pentecost. Together we will clean and decorate the building, knit wreaths, grind flour and bake pancakes on the fire. We lie in the field
We cordially invite visitors to Archeon who want to revive and experience the Middle Ages to join this procession.
The Hungarian National Museum was founded in 1802 and is the national museum for the history, art and archaeology of Hungary. It’s collections, exhibitions and affiliates present an overall view of the archaeology and history of the country.
Until 2022 archaeological research, excavation work and presentation were assigned to two separate units within the National Museum. One of these was the Department of Archaeology, which conducts excavations and research of outstanding national significance (like for eg. Vértesszőlős, Kölked-Feketekapu, Heténypuszta, Zalavár, Doboz, Feldebrő, Gyula Castle, etc.). In addition to their research, the members of the department take part in university teaching and in the organisation of scientific life.
