The building at Budaörsi út 47. houses the Jakab Bleyer Collection of Local History. Its five adjoining, smaller and bigger rooms used to be the home of a well-to-do farmer-bourgeois family. The goal of this exhibition is to present the farmer-bourgeois life-style destroyed by the expelling in 1946.

People in Budaörs had particularly beautiful ironed ladies'clothes with aprons and the farmers' clothes with boots and trousers. Thehigh-made beds with initials contain a collection of ladies' bonnets. Importantpieces of farmer-bourgeois rooms were commodes with three or four drawers, withtheir top decorated with Christ and Mary sculptures and family prayer booksrepresenting the family's religious life. Reconstruction of the old-time Germankitchen is successful. A room with a free chimney is also presented -housewives were proud of their collection of numerous glazed bowls with flowermotifs. The inscription of the splash-guard hung next to the hand-washingvessel teaches to keep order. Manual mangles were important tools ofhousewives.

The subsequent two rooms present Germanfarmer-bourgeois' everydays through a few objects and documents. This startswith a settlement patent, documents related to farming, a detail ofKneidinger's map showing Budaörs' limits. Old plans preserved the mostcharacteristic Baroque buildings of former Budaörs.
