FERENC RIEDL COLLECTION OF LOCAL HISTORY, NAP-HEGY, TŰZKÔ-HEGY

The porched Weber house, built in the 19th century, (Budapesti u. 45-47.) has five rooms furnished with original furniture where you can look at a few details of the everyday life of a well-to-do farming family. This exhibition featuring clothes, pictures, ceramics and other objects promises a visit full of experience to every age group. The living room and the kitchen contain numerous objects of which we do not even know the name or the purpose. The figures dressed in local festive and everyday clothes make the house very vivid You can take a close look at old agricultural tools and a wagon on the porch of the building. After visiting the Collection of Local History, you can take an easy, 30-minute walk along Mátyás Király and then Liliom utca to 253-m-high Nap-hegy. A favourite recreational place of locals, a patch of forest full of refreshing scents on the side of Frankhegy, built up more and more densely. Unfortunately, man-planted Australian pine forests on the southern slope of the hill are decaying and their place is reconquered by indigenous vegetation: hedge-thorn, dog-rose and barberry bushes. You can also find a few protected, special plants along the path: blue periwinkle, white-flowered Hungarian devil's-milk, yellow-flowered cuckoo-pint, brownish red beech-drops. The reddish dolomite rocks on the northern slope are also worth climbing. Continuing our walk to get to know Nap-hegy, you walk along Ringló and then Merengő utca meandering among cottages to another man-planted pine forest on Tűzkő-hegy, adjacent with Budapest. This area has highly similar natural features and fauna. Its peculiarity is that the exquisitely rich grave from the 9th century was found here and displayed at the City Archaeological Exhibition.
