Hungarian National Museum
The vastly improved Hungarian National Museum's site carries a fair visual sampling of the Magyars' remarkable patrimony, from ancient objets to medieval icons to modern art. Available in English and Hungarian. Too bad the downloads are interminable. Are those hamsters powering their servers?

Budapest Tourist Office
Check out "Sights" for a listing of Budapest's dozens of museums. We are flabbergasted by both the sheer volume of museums and the lack of description provided on this site. Some of the museums stand on their own, but it would take a more persuasive page to get us to the Foundry Museum.
