At the Museum shop, you can buy our publications (exhibition guides, volumes of essays and studies, bibliographies, lexicons, CDs etc.), postcards of Hungarian writers, framed portraits of authors from our collections and other gifts.

After visiting the exhibitions, take time to relax in the Károlyi Restaurant: open from spring to autumn, its garden terrace welcomes guests to the peaceful Palace Garden. In the Palace Bookshop, you will find translations of numerous Hungarian literary works, as well as various guides to the sights of the Hungarian capital. For ease of access for visitors with disabilities there is a ramp from the Palace Garden to the main building, and the Exhibition Rooms can be reached by lift from the ground floor.

For more information on our exhibitions, see 'Tárlat' — the special, Hungarian-English issue of Pesti Műsor, and our Homepage www.pim.hu.
