It coincides with the 500-year celebration of the Reformation, which is held in all countries, showing what countries think and do in the Reformation, and the display of some items, and the Hungarian exhibition is also very detailed. There is also the history display of Hungary, a permanent exhibition, every stage of the history of the country has pictures and objects in kind display, friends who like history will definitely find endless fun from it. No records of Princess Sissi and Franz. Unfortunately I had limited time and my friends waited outside so I only browsed for an hour but was very impressed.
You could save the queue and cost and take the stairs but for the full experience obviously you can pay for the cars to take you up to the Castle.
