Gypsy museum to open in Budapest in September
The Budapest Gypsy Museum about the history of the Roma (Gypsy) people in Hungary will open in the middle of September, writes fn.h.u, based on a report in daily Népszava.
Education and Culture Minister István Hiller, who helped develop the Budapest Gypsy Museum (Budapesti Cigánymúzeum), said that similar institutions are needed in other Hungarian cities as well, including Pécs and Szolnok.
Hiller also said that the Hungarian Socialist Party would like to be a partner in collecting data about the number of Hungarian Gypsy people deported during World War II.
