Skanzen (Open-Air Ethnographical Museum)

Frommer's Review

About 3km (2 miles) northwest of Szentendre is one of Hungary's better skanzens, or reproduction peasant villages. This ambitious skanzen, the largest in the country, represents rural life from all regions of the country. There are several reconstructed 18th- and 19th-century villages, with thatch-roofed houses, blacksmith and weaving shops, working mills, and churches. A guidebook in English is available at the gate.

Buses that can get you to Skanzen depart from Platform 8 of Szentendre's bus station, adjacent to the HÉV station (get off at the Szabadság-forrás stop). If you're driving, follow Route 10 N. Turn left on Sztaravodai út.
