A
Hungarian Museum of Naive Artists
Arguably the city's most interesting museum and one of the few of its kind in Europe, the Hungarian Museum of Naive Artists is in the Stork House (1730), surrounded by a high white wall, just off Petőfi Sándor utca. Lots of predictable themes here, but the warmth and craft of Rozália Albert Juhászné's work, the drug-like visions of Dezső Mokry-Mészáros and the paintings of András Süli (Hungary's answer to Henri Rousseau) will hold your attention.

B
Toy Museum & Workshop
The Toy Museum & Workshop has a small collection of 19th- and early-20th-century dolls, wooden trains, board games and so on, dumped haphazardly in glass cases. But the museum spends most of its time and money on organising events and classes for kids. Much is made of Ernő Rubik, the Hungarian inventor of that infuriating Rubik's Cube from the 1970s.

C
Hungarian Folk Craft Museum
The Hungarian Folk Craft Museum, the granddaddy of all museums in Kecskemét, is further southwest and a block in from Dózsa György út. Some 10 rooms of an old farm complex are crammed with embroidery, woodcarving, furniture, agricultural tools and textiles, so don't try to see everything at once.
