Róza Szegedy Museum (Szegedy Róza-ház), Badacsonytomaj

The ground floor houses a display of the tools and containers of the grape harvest and wine cellars. The belongings, works and other memorabilia of Róza Szegedy's husband, the poet Sándor Kisfaludy, can be viewed upstairs.

The vintager's dwelling presents the exhibition entitled Balaton Almanac which consists of the manuscripts of Balaton-inspired poems by famous poets, mostly written in 1967. Among others, the collection features poems by Lajos Kassák, János Pilinszky, Dezső Tandori and György Faludy. The spiritual delicacies of this intimate little exhibition in the vineyardist's dwelling complement the beautiful Lake Balaton view of Tihany and Keszthely from the porch of the museum.

Since 1999, the programme of the museum has been enriched by occasional events recalling the first half of the 19th century: drinking songs are sung and there is dancing on the lawn in front of the house. The upstairs rooms host lectures about the period. The exhibition has also been extended: the display of the utensils of viticulture is enriched by recipes for 'ürmös' (a seasoned wine traditionally made in Badacsony) and poems extolling the virtues of good wine.
