After nearly ten years of interval, we have opened a new permanent exhibition on the history of trade. This exhibition presents two centuries of the development and the history of Hungarian trade, including measuring, fairs and markets. Objects representing vocational trade education in the past are on display, and the atmosphere of old shops and shop-windows can also be experienced. Since January, 2014 the second part of the exhibition has been open: along with others a Stühmer sweets-shop, a stationery and an ironmonger’s are waiting visitors. The exhibition also introduces the colourful world of the department stores – from the Great Parisian Store to the Corvin. It also depicts important organizations and events such as the ’Hangya’ Co-operatives and nationalisation. The exhibition portrays socialist trade including the Közért Company, the State Department Stores and shop windows of the time.
