Géza Gárdonyi Memorial Museum, Literary memorial museum in Eger, Hungary.
The former residence of writer Géza Gárdonyi contains his personal belongings, study room, manuscripts, and a collection of ten thousand books.
The museum opened in 1952 in the house where Gárdonyi lived from 1897 until 1922, writing his famous novel Eclipse of the Crescent Moon.
The museum presents exhibitions about Hungarian literature through Gárdonyi's works, hosting regular readings and literary workshops for the local community.
The memorial museum stands near Eger Castle, offering guided tours in multiple languages and maintaining regular opening hours from Tuesday to Sunday.
A glass roof above the preserved writing desk in Gárdonyi's study filters natural light exactly as the author designed it for his workspace.
