Tiszafüred

Culture enthusiasts can visit the Kiss Pál Museum for archaeological and ethnographic exhibitions. For relaxation, there is a thermal bath with 39 °C alkaline bicarbonate thermal water; the outdoor pool has a sandy beach and a spacious lawn surrounded by trees.

The Tiszavirág floodplain trail and nature trail is in Tiszafüred-Örvény, by Szabics Kikötő és Szabadidőpart. Another nature trail, the Örvényi Pákász Tanösvény, presents the traditions of Pákász fishing and ways of life along the Tisza at twelve stops and across twelve themed areas. The trail alternates between water and land. If you are interested in the Tisza and its traditional ways of life, you will find a different thematic focus here than at a museum.

The Kérész Eco and Active Tourism Centre is right by Füredi-Holt-Tisza and next to the town harbour. At the Természetbúvár Laboratory, digital microscopes allow detailed observation of the flora and fauna of Lake Tisza. The one-hour interactive Kér-Ész-Tér programme includes a digital sandbox described as the largest in Central Europe. These attractions offer different emphases: close observation takes centre stage in the laboratory, while the programme combines interaction with digital presentation.

The Kiss Pál Museum is housed in a Neoclassical manor residence built by the Lipcsey family in the first half of the 19th century. Its permanent exhibitions cover two different subjects: one focuses on Tiszafüred’s approximately 7,000-year archaeological past, while the other is ethnographic and displays works from the 17th and 18th centuries.

The size and subject areas of the collection also make the museum interesting to visitors with a range of interests. It comprises around 13,000 works of art and documents from folklore, history, natural sciences—especially palaeontology—and fine art. The Nyúzó Gáspár Fazekas Tájház is also part of the museum. It displays material evidence of the pottery craft once widespread in Tiszafüred, as well as the original living environment. Together, the museum and the Tájház offer insights into the archaeological past, ethnographic works and a former local craft.

The thermal bath offers 39 °C alkaline bicarbonate thermal water for relaxation. The outdoor pool has a different focus: its facilities include a sandy beach and a spacious lawn surrounded by trees. When choosing between a thermal bath and an outdoor pool with beach and green spaces, you can decide which type of bathing better suits your travel plans.

One annual event to note is the Tiszafüred Fish Days (Tiszafüredi Halasnapok). The three-day festival takes place on the second weekend of July. If you want to plan your trip around this event, take the date into account when making your plans.
