Ibolya Bereczki-Arpád Román THE FARMSTEAD FROM KARCAG IN THE HUNGARIAN OPEN AIR MUSEUM The authors present their suggestions for the new construction of the farmyard from the region Nagykunság in the regional unit Great Plain in the Hungarian Open Air Museum. The unit was partially completed between 1992 and 2000. One side of the street has been finished, here stand the Inn from Jászárokszállás, the dwelling houses from Hajdúbagos and Sükösd and further on the street the Blue-dyeing workshop from Nagykőrös and the Tannery from Baja and some distance away the Bakery from the Great Plain. Other objects belonging to the regional unit are the detached Farmstead from the region Nagykunság, the Windmill from Dusnok and the recently relocated Railway signalman’s house as part of the latest development. The completion of the other side of the street is the subject of our midterm plans. The updating of the plans referring to the regional unit is in progress. By purchasing and dismantling two units, the house from Karcag (Karcag, Baross utca 14.) and the baking house (Karcag, Madarasi út 36.), the Hungarian Open Air Museum obtained two buildings that allow the authentic presentation of traditional farming in Karcag and in the region Nagykunság. The characteristics of the bourgeois transformation in the market town at the beginning of the 20th century can also be showcased. After the planning phase of the project for the new construction, the museum had the opportunity to enrich the building stock of the farmstead in the autumn 2015. The museum purchased and dismantled the stable and pantry from Karcag, Deák krt. 16. The stable can be an authentic element of the farm buildings, which perfectly suits the earlier purchased objects in time and in social status. In the first half of the article, the authors treat the geographic, historical and ethnographic background of the community. They deal with the researchers of the region’s ethnography and vernacular architecture. The authors follow up the place of the buildings in the typical order of a farm and their planned presentation in the museum. They inform the reader about the aspects of the selection of the buildings, about the researched family history and about the experience gained while dismantling the buildings. The buildings are described in the attachment and the reader is informed about the method how the museum professionals collect information for the architect, based on ethnographic research and experience while dismantling. The provided information serves as a basis when the architect works out the implementation plans. The description of the structures is followed by the ethnographer’s suggestions for modifications of the selected time segment, and for the presentation of the elements to be built-in. 141
