About


🏛💊 The museum is situated on the first story of the so-called Finta-House. (Court 12 no.1). The real estate predecessor of the Finta-House, the former house with round porch, was built in 1835 after the great fire, and because of its ruinous state it was demolished in 1972. The building was rebuilt in 1978 preserving its previous form.

The history of the collection
 
The exhibited materials were saved for the posterity by dr. Boga Olivér head physician.  The museum objects and the apparatus were exposed for the first time in 2008 in one of the buildings of the Centre for Gerontology and Rehabilitation in Lemnia de Jos. From there they were brought in the building of the Finta-House. The basis of the collection’s material represents the apparatus of the pharmacies no. 24 and 52 of Târgu Secuiesc after 1949, completed with the collection of dr. Boga Olivér. The collection survived the Communism and escaped from confiscation. After the change of the regime dr. Boga Olivér asked for the furniture and apparatus from the personnel of the Golden Snake Pharmacy, which had already been functioning as a private pharmacy and completed it with his own collection. Other donations were also included afterwards. 
According to our present knowledge there are 22 pharmaceutical museums in the country. Most of them are functioning within an institute. In Transylvania are recorded four, one of them is in Târgu Secuiesc. The actual state of the museum praises the work of the civil association Let’s act for Kézdi Chair.

You can find large dolls of the characters from the television series The Lord of the Rings, but also Mother Teresa or Princess Diana. You'll learn when and how the first porcelain dolls were made, and at the end of your visit you'll discover that doll-making is not just an entire world, but a complex and demanding craft. "The Gallery was founded in 2010 with 175 dolls, and today I am the owner of 1,000 dolls. The museum's material is entirely a private collection, the result of years of collecting. My collection includes classic and modern porcelain dolls, artist dolls, limited edition dolls, character dolls, vinyl dolls, and many more. These dolls are more than just ephemeral toys with their lifelike designs and masterfully stitched clothes. The Doll's Gallery is known as Olga Gallery, named after my husband's mother. The museum is not educational, the doll gallery is a fairy tale and reality, a fairy tale that comes to life. Memories, dreams and desires all come to life here. I recommend this experience for all ages." - says Ibolya Nagy, founder of the Olga Gallery. 🧡 ❗️ To visit you need a prior appointment by phone.

❗️ We recommend prior consultation before visiting. 📞  📜 Throughout history, there have always been those "Return Home, Wanderer" who, sadly, could never return home, much as they would have liked to. Such was Kelemen Mikes, author of the Letters from Turkey, chamberlain to Ferenc Rákóczi II. Visit the Szentkereszty Castle, where the writer and translator spent part of his childhood. After the confiscation of his estates, the Szentkereszty family inherited the building. It is now a museum with memorial rooms to Kelemen Mikes, Vilmos Csutak, Manyi Kiss and Géza Domokos. ⚜️ This manor from Zagon is one of the most significant buildings of the Mikes family, and it already existed in the 17th century, as indicated by an inscription in one of the beams, which includes the year number 1632, and the initials B:M and E:D.
