Cleveland Hungarian Museum

The Cleveland Hungarian Museum is featured in this video, from its beginning in 1985 through 2015, in its several locations over its 30 years of serving the public. In addition to a tour of the current Museum and Library in the Galleria in downtown Cleveland, past exhibits, lectures and events are highlighted, including the visit of Dr. Otto von Habsburg. There are interviews with Otto Friedrich, Founder of the Museum, László Varga, its President, and Board Member Jenny Grasselli Brown, among others. Presented by The Hungarian American Coalition and written by its Vice President, Andrea Lauer Rice, it was directed by Réka Pigniczky (56 Films Founder), with music by the Harmonia Ensemble and Életfa.

Cool beans. My Aunt Mary's parents immigrated from Hungary and settled in Akron. She and my Uncle were high school sweet hearts and married after the outbreak of WWII and after he'd enlisted in the US Army.

Thanks for sharing that. Akron and the greater Cleveland area has a rich and long history of Hungarian immigrants. Would be nice to hear from others who have ties to this area....

@@clevelandhungarianmuseum3939 Aunt Mary and her parents arrived in US from Southampton, UK in 1921 aboard the SS Aquitania. Mary was just over a month old when the ship set sail, so we don't know if she was born in Hungary or England.

Thank you for sharing that. It is always great to hear about the memories that tie us all together as Hungarians.
