György Kohán Museum
The György Kohán Museum , in quiet Göndöcs-Népkert, is Gyula's most important art museum, with more than 3000 paintings and graphics bequeathed to the city by the artist upon his death in 1966. The large canvases of horses and women in dark blues and greens, and the relentless summer sun of the Great Plain, are quite striking and well worth a look.

Százéves
The Százéves cake shop and museum is a visual and culinary delight. Established around 1840 (no doubt Mrs Ladics bought her petits-fours here), the Regency-blue interior is filled with Biedermeier furniture and mirrors in gilt frames. It is one of the most beautiful cukrászdák in Hungary.

Ladics House
An interesting - and, for Hungary, very unusual - museum is Ladics House, the perfectly preserved and beautifully furnished mid-19th century residence of a prosperous bourgeois family.

Ferenc Erkel Museum
Close by the Gyula Castle is the Ferenc Erkel Museum. It has a Dürer Room devoted to archaeological finds - pottery, jewellery and weapons - from the region.

Mary Museum
For contemporary icons at their kitschy best, no place can compare with the Mary Museum. You've never seen the Virgin in so many guises.
