Toy museum opens exhibition on Hungarian heroes

The Tartu Toy Museum is set to unveil a new exhibition, "Hungarian Heroes - Real and Play," a collaborative effort with Budapest's Óbuda Museum. The exhibition, opening on Saturday at 11 a.m., aims to introduce visitors to Hungarian heroes through the engaging mediums of Hungarian games, toys, and books.

This unique display will offer a glimpse into Hungarian culture and history, presented in a format accessible to families and children. The Óbuda Museum's contribution brings authentic Hungarian artifacts and perspectives to the exhibition, bridging cultural understanding between Estonia and Hungary.

To celebrate the opening, a family day event will be held from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. Visitors can participate in puppet theater activities and try their hand at sculpting figures from salt dough, guided by guests from the Óbuda Museum. Traditional Hungarian pastry, pogácsa, will also be available for tasting, adding a culinary element to the cultural experience.
