The astronomical exhibition has some very old telescopes. But the real attraction is the camera obscura at top of the tower.
Unfortunately the people in the museum bonoy talks in Hungarian, but there are some written guides for foreign visitors.
The view from the top terrace is really nice.

A must have experience. The building is also home to the local university and it is beautiful. There are multiple exhibitions with an interactive physics demonstration, an optical museum and an astronomical museum. The astronomical museum was especially interesting and there were old telescopes. The camera obscura is found az the top of the tower and was a great experience. The view is amazing from the top of the building. The demonstrations were all in Hungarian.

Very useful both for children and adults. You can get a very interesting historical and interactive tour. At the top of the building there is a big terrace where you can see the whole area from above. It is a must have experience!

Super fascinating, interactive exhibition. The camera obscura is really interesting also for children. The guide explained everything, it was easy to understand how it works. Nice view also from the terrace. The entrance is on the square, not in the street, it was not easy to find. (Door closed, no sign on the outside.)

The Camera Obscura is very interesting, you must see it at least once. It's a 130 years old technology, steampunk at it's best! :D
