Textile has always been part of people’s life, from birth to death. Tools made of textile are there everywhere, in households, farming and of course clothing. continue
Work in relation to textile determines life in villages throughout our region. The most important moments in the life of people living in Tiszahát are connected to weaving and embroidery of the textile thus produced. continue
One of the traditional fancyworks of the Tiszahát people living in Bereg is the mourning funeral fancywork. When trousseaus were prepared for young girls, mourning tablecloths, mourning covers for mirrors and bier covers were already included in it. These textiles were mostly embroidered with black thread. However, the motifs were the usual ones, those that were applied on most of the textiles used on a daily basis. continue
The large reception hall leads to the room considering the life of the legendary Calvinist priest, the founder of the museum, Árpád Csiszár (1912-1989). Interesting, often edifying events are highlighted from the life of the priest who set an example with his life to future generations. continue
Patrons in villages in Bereg used to be of noble families. They helped communities in their region, helped them to survive and also patronised talented young men. continue

A variety of earthenware was necessary to have for every household in the past. As pottery craft was only there in our region until the 17th century, people had to purchase pottery at fairs. Potters from various towns brought their products to fairs in Namény where the fair-goers could select from a variety of pottery. continue
