The former cart shed, which used to belong to the Hortobágy Great Inn, operates today as the Shepherds’ Museum. The building used to be an important shelter for travelers and for the traders of the Bridge Fair to protect and store their animals, carriages and goods. At the exhibition you can get a great insight into the lives of the shepherds and you can see their handmade clothing, tools and beautifully decorated items of personal use on display.
