The treasures of the Hungarian National Museum’s 2011-the Hungarian Museum of Engineering and Transport’s Várpalota Museum of Chemistry
The Hungarian Chemistry Museum was established in 1963 by the Ministry of Heavy Industry with the purpose of collecting the Hungarian memories of the chemical industry and the science of chemistry, to keep them safe and make them accessible for the generations to come. It has been in operation in the Thury castle since 1969. Since being established it has retained its curiosity and operates as Central Europe’s only independent museum of chemistry.
