History

The museum opened in 1978 on the Virághegy (Flower Hill). It presents the folk architecture of Máramaros, Kővárvidék, Lápos-vidék and Szatmár. Its most spectacular and oldest piece is the Greek Catholic wooden church from the village of Oláhkékes. It was originally built in 1630 in honour of Saint George.
