Archívum

200 years of the National Széchényi Library

Count Ferenc Széchényi donated his abundant collection of books, maps, engravings, coins, and minerals to the nation 200 years ago, in 1802, creating thus a national public collection (library and museum). The bicentenary of the foundation was celebrated with a series of events by the National Széchényi Library and the Hungarian National Museum throughout the year. The memorial year gave an opportunity not only for Hungarian commemorations and international conferences, but also for the publication of valuable volumes.
