Indeed even kings and emperors have spent time in this nation of ours for one reason or another, perhaps they were dealing out justice, sitting counsel or fighting on the battlefield. Walk the paths they once did and become acquainted with the artefacts and relics that uphold their memories, stop for a moment and experience living history.
After the Tatar Invasion, Béla IV traveled through Hungary several times to serve justice and put an end to abuse and misrule. He held a tribunal at the so-called Királyszék (King's Chair) located on the border of Győr in the direction of Ménfőcsanak in 1244. That day in history is commemorated with a stone cross marking where the King's Chair had once stood.

The institution holds two significant artifacts related to King Matthias. At the treasury exhibition, we can see the 15th-century Florentine ceremonial clothing featuring the Hunyadi Dynasty’s raven crest on its lower half. According to tradition, this was a gift to the cathedral from the king. The library’s most precious artifact is a corvina from King Matthias's renowned collection. This was the first corvina to be translated into Hungarian. Due to its sensitivity, this extremely valuable book cannot be viewed at the permanent exhibition, however, a replica was published in 2018.

In the times of Maria Theresa, a postal carriage inn operated in one of the most beautiful spots in Gönyű, on the banks of the Danube. The large building complex was built based on the plans of Jakab Fellner and construction lasted from 1759 to 1769. The emperor Franz most likely spent a night here at the very beginning of the 19th century when the Rotaházy family was awarded the title of nobility.
