The Kmetty Museum is a small but charming art museum in the heart of Szentendre, dedicated entirely to the work of painter János Kmetty. It's a perfect stop for anyone wandering the town's picturesque streets who wants to dive deeper into the artistic soul of this riverside town.

Housed in an 18th-century building right on the main square, the museum has a cozy, intimate atmosphere that contrasts nicely with the bustling square outside. In summer, the cool galleries offer a welcome break from the crowds and heat, while in quieter seasons the museum feels almost private, giving you space to really study the paintings.

• The museum sits on Szentendre's main square, an easy few-minute walk from anywhere in the town center - flat, easy access suitable for everyone

• Opened in 1981 as part of the Ferenczy Museum Centre
• The collection began with a donation of 275 works from the artist's widow after his death in 1975
• The building itself dates back to the 18th century
• The permanent exhibition was closed during a 2018 renovation and is open again today
• The courtyard features a 1960 sculpture of Csontváry by Jenő Kerényi

The permanent collection traces Kmetty's full artistic journey - from early plein air scenes through Cubist experiments to the bluish compositions he created in the 1960s.
