Just outside of Budapest, this town is full of churches, galleries, museums and cafes. Szentendre was settled by Serbians fleeing from the Turkish occupation in the 17th century. Because of the Serbian influence the town has the Mediterranean feel.

An extensive collection of Margit Kovacs' ceramic works featuring a unique synthesis of folk and Byzantine motifs.
This town was so interesting---MANY shops, cafes, etc. It was a surprise to find the Ceramic Museum in this little town---quite impressive, well done and very classy. I was intrigued with it. We had already visited Budapest and wanted to find a new location of interest---this was perfect!

The Hubay House Christmas Exhibition is a wonderful place for anyone who loves or appreciates Christmas to visit. They have many gorgeous displays of vintage Christmas ornaments from the 1800s - 1950s - 1980s. They also have many retro (new) ornaments and many other styles of decorations available for purchase. It took us about 40 minutes to go through all the displays and the store. The museum brought back a lot of memories that my cousin had of christmases when he was a child in the 1950s. It was a good day.

I made the short trip on suburban railway from Budapest to Szentendre to visit this museum - and felt it well worthwhile. The fact that the trip only cost me around 1 euro each way as an add-on my Budapest travel ticket was a bonus. Those that moan about the price should consider what one might pay elsewhere - around 3 euros for an admission with a photo pass seems fine to me, and those in the party who don’t want to take photos get in even cheaper! There is a fine collection of trams through the ages, so even though there is a mix of old and new trams still running on the streets of Budapest, there are plenty of others to see here. There are also a few buses and engines, but the trams are the star of the show! The volunteer staff don't speak a lot of English, but in context there are no issues with paying the entrance fee etc.

Established as the local history collection of the town in 1951 and named after artist Károly Ferenczy, the museum was relocated to a historic monument building, the 18th-century Pajor Mansion in Kossuth Lajos Street in 2013. In 2016 the museum changed its name to Ferenczy Museum Centre, and today it owns a uniquely rich collection of Szentendre’s painting, graphic art, sculpture, and numismatic art. On the second floor of the building’s old wing one may get a taste of the works of The Eight, founders of the old artists’ settlement in 1926. The exhibition is currently being rearranged. There are two temporary exhibition halls on the first floor. The works of contemporary Szentendre artists are exhibited in Szentendre Hall, whereas in Barcsay Hall projects of national and international artists can be viewed.

Amazing displays. Such wonderful detail! You'd never believe they were made out of marzipan! A wide variety of people, items and characters on display - from Mickey Mouse to Michael Jackson! Very reasonable entry fee. Well worth a visit.

This museum is located in the cellar of the Laberintis restaurant. The cellar is old, humid, and houses a number of tools and utensils of the wine making industry. Some go back centuries, even though the basic process of making wine hasn't changed than much; it just got refined. The Museum offers wine tasting for a modest fee. Focus on the local wines. Hungary has about 130 autochtonous varietals, not found anywhere else in the world. It makes for a different and very interesting tasting experience.
