They have several rooms with stoves, or at least parts of them (tiles, grates, etc). They also show you the workshop area, and some very fancy, old (but renovated) stoves in different styles. Even some other old objects. Very interesting and reasonably priced experience. They have some printed materials in English, but the tour is really enjoyable for Hungarian guests, because the ladies will answer all your questions, as long as you ask them in Hungarian. But there is also an app you can use to find out some more info. (This is not specific to this museum, but useful for several attractions in the city. You can see signs and QR codes all over the place. Go to the Visitor Center first to find out about the app and the attractions where it is useful.)

The Storno house is located in the main square of Sopron. It has two floors with many rooms where you can see a lot of artefacts that Ferenc Storno, the chimney-sweeper had collected during his life. Definitely worth visiting!

The Old Synagogue is an interesting place to visit. The synagogue was built in the 12th century during the Roman period. The Jewish community was forced out of the city in the 1500s. And, the synagogue was not rediscovered until 1967. There is not a lot of material or artifacts in the synagogue. There is a 6 page history that is interesting to read. If you visit, talk to the woman that curates the museum. She spoke to us for an hour telling us the story and explaining everything. She was amazing!

I have not visited this place since my childhood, and it really came as a suprise to see how well the reconstruction and re-themed/educational side has been strengthened. After a nice stroll/climb on the path on the edge of the cliffs/plateau and catch a full sight on the nearby area, we climbed down the staircase, into the interior parts of the mine. The sizes of the carved stones are amazing. At first we were suprised by the sharks, but quickly realized how well the old sea concept fitted int othe concept. Sound effects were also great. The short film they showed quickly summarized how the mine generated through millions of years, how uncovering then mining of this limestone happened, and which famous buildings' construction used these stones. Staff wasa friendly, told us the details: expected timing on the path, short films times in the mine, toilet facility, etc. Near the entrance we had ice-cream. Inside the mine it is cold.
