This is a very small museum dedicated to the life and art of Ady, probably the greatest modern Hungarian poet of the last century. The exhibits include objects used by the poet, like his desk or his hat. Objects related to the episodes of his love inspirations are also on show. The atmosphere of the small place brings you back one century, to the city of Nagyvárad (the name of Oradea at that time) the second largest city of Hungary at the beginning of the 20th century. Zoltán Imre, who was the keeper of the exhibition is a wonderful man. He made the objects live, and multiplied the impressions we got from the place itself. For example, to our question, what was the relation of Ady to the place where the museum is installed, he looked at his watch, and told us, at this time of the day, he would be sitting here, near this window, as this used to be a small confectionary, where he had written the draft of his articles... He told so many interesting episodes from the life of Ady...His knowledge was astonishing. I would love to read an Ady biography he authors which would include illustrations from the exihibits of the museum! He can make the explanation in Hungarian (the language of Ady's poetry) and Romanian for sure, I am unsure of other languages, but I strongly recommend this museum for art, literature, poetry and XXth century lovers.

Words are not enough to describe this place. Pure emotion, or the saddest museum seen in Romania so far and yet a stark reminder of what hate could bring and why such horrible past must never repeat. A must for anyone willing to understand better that dark period. Very well organized and run.
