Mihály Zichy Museum - Zala

Painter Mihály Zichy was born in this mansion in 1827. The museum was founded in 1927 on the occasion of the centenary of the painter's birth by his granddaughter, Mária Alexandra Zichy and her husband István Csicsery-Rónay. The exhibition was opened in 1979, then renovated and rearranged in 1992 . The furniture in the exhibition are original and has been preserved by the Zichy family.
