Museum of Historical Wax Figures

Keszthely


This is a surprisingly fun way to acquaint yourself with the who's who of Hungary's rulers, poets, clerics and military commanders. The eclectic collection includes 脕rp谩d, the leader of the Hungarian tribes in the 9th and 10th centuries; St Stephen, Hungary's first king; St Margaret; J谩nos Hunyadi, the defeater of the Turks; and Gy枚rgy D贸zsa, who led a peasant revolt and was 'crowned' for his efforts on a red-hot throne. A parade of nun dolls awaits near the entrance.
