Depicts the Hungarian National Museum surrounded by the country name (Hungarian People's Republic).

Established in 1802, the Hungarian National Museum (Magyar Nemzeti Múzeum) serves as the primary repository for Hungary's history, art, and archaeology, encompassing regions beyond its modern borders, such as Transylvania. Housed in a Neoclassical building in Budapest VIII, constructed by architect Mihály Pollack between 1837 and 1847, it stands distinct from the international art collection found in the Hungarian National Gallery. Originally rooted in Count Ferenc Széchényi's establishment of the National Széchényi Library in 1802, the museum expanded its scope with the donation of a mineral collection by Széchényi's wife, leading to its transformation into a comprehensive history and natural history institution. The Hungarian National Parliament's support in 1832–1834 facilitated its growth, including funding for a new building, and officially established the Hungarian National History Museum under its auspices. During the 1848 Hungarian Revolution, the museum played a pivotal role, with events unfolding on its steps contributing to its national significance. The split in 1949 separated the ethnographic and natural history components into the Hungarian Natural History Museum and Ethnographic Museum, paving the way for the establishment of the modern-day National Széchényi Library.
