Via Sancti Martin

The Society's collection was initially exhibited in the town hall, and from 1887 in the county hall. In 1912, the public of Moson County recognised the importance of the material, which was constantly growing through collections, excavations and donations, by erecting a museum building for it. Today, the museum's local history exhibition is still housed in the neoclassical building with a portico at 1 Szent István Street.

The same building houses an exhibition on the history of the Moson plain through archaeological, ethnographic and local history objects and documents, as well as an insight into the life of the city's hotels and restaurants, and a special section commemorating the 1956 Mosonmagyaróvár massacre.

In the decades following its foundation, the museum's collection was almost exclusively limited to archaeological material. Noteworthy are the Roman monuments of Magyaróvár and Oroszvár, the Lombards' cemetery in Bezenyei and the annexes of the Avar tombs in Nemesvölgy. Between the two world wars, the museum's excavation rights were terminated and the collection was no longer enriched with archaeological finds. However, generous donations and gifts enabled the institution to continue to develop, and the exhibition was expanded to include fine art, urban history, ethnography and natural history.

In 1982, the museum took over the oldest listed building in the town, the Cselley House (19 Fő út), which now serves as the museum's headquarters. The basement of the building houses a Roman stone vault, while the upstairs exhibition rooms house the rich collection of Dr. Tibor Gyurkovich, one of the most important artists of 19th-20th century Hungarian painting. In the same rooms, the museum's interiors offer a taste of the museum's 17th-19th century fine and applied arts. In December 2012, a room in memory of Tibor Gyurkovics, writer and poet, was added to the exhibition.
