Wonderful museum in Óbuda. Imre Varga created many of Budapest’s most familiar and thoughtful statues and you can see designs and models for them here. There are also some hidden gems you might not have seen before. Friendly, knowledgeable staff enhance the experience.

Masterful sculptures that are only available at this museum; they don't travel. The museum is not in the mainstream of Budapest art venues it seems - only a few people were there at mid-day in August - but it is a must-see for lovers of art. So many of the works tell an important story and inspire reflection.
We went to the museum last spring and when we get back to Budapest, we will definitely go again. Amazing work. We had the most lovely gentleman give us a personal tour and we're so grateful for his efforts to explain the works. We were so engrossed in it, I didn't remember to post a review. So here it is now.
A National Treasure, Virtually Unknown by Most Tourists A lot of visitors are moved by Imre Varga's work at the Holocaust Museum, the Tree of Remembrance but are completely unaware of his museum that features over a hundred of his works. Unfortunately the city does not promote it.It is easy to get there once you know of its existence. The metro stops right around the corner. The museum has some full size statues, many models of large, public statues, some of his paintings, and medals he was commissioned to design. The place is a treasure trove that no art lover should miss!
Interesting sculptures by a famous Hungarian artist. I was accompanied wherever I went by an employee who said it's their policy, which was a bit strange. Would have stayed longer otherwise.
Amazing, compact collection of Imre Varga’s sculptures, tucked away in a corner of Obuda!
Museum dedicated to one of Hungary's most famous modern sculptors. A little gem hidden in the remnants of the old town of Obuda, virtually unknown by most tourists.
