Budapest Tourism: Aquincum Exi Museum

Video Transcript

"The newest exhibition at the Aquincum Exi museum in Budapest, Hungary is a protected monument building. It's built in Neo-classical style at the edge of the Archeological park. The exhibition features valuable never before seen treasures from the collections at the museum. The exhibition hall also holds freshly restored mosaics and wall paintings from the Governor's Palace excavations. An excavated map shows the location of Pannonia, within the Roman Empire, and that of Aquincum in the province of Pannonia. The carved stones are the remains of alters and statues to the Gods. Visitors can check out monumental statues that previously stood in place at sanctuaries. These objects exemplify the luxurious nature of the palace's interior. The objects presented in the cases, including imported glass bronze or ceramic vessels as well as the gold and silver jewelry, were all part of the Governor's daily life and those people surrounding him. You can go on-line for ticket information as well as hours of operation."
