Mátra Múzeum, Natural history museum in Gyöngyös, Hungary.

The Mátra Múzeum consists of three sections: Orczy Castle, the Natural History Pavilion, and a two-hectare nature reserve park with botanical specimens.

The building began as a Baroque castle in 1769, transformed into Classicist style in 1826, and became the Mátra Múzeum in 1957.

The museum exhibits regional artifacts, hunting history, minerals, and ancient creatures, including a mammoth skeleton displayed under a glass roof.

The museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday to Sunday between 09:00 and 17:00, with separate tickets available for the castle and natural history sections.

The Natural History Pavilion features a 15-meter oak tree surrounded by twenty-four dioramas showing different ecological environments of the region.
