Abstract
The Museum of Applied Arts has the richest collection of Haban ceramics of any public collection in Hungary. The museum preserves close to four hundred items of Haban ceramics made before 1760: vessels, stove tiles, a stove and floor tiles. The article presents the history of the collection with special regard to the aims of the collecting, the circumstances of acquisitions and the most important collectors. It cites the thought of Jenő Radisics, the director general who has made the greatest contribution to the museum, on collection building that can be regarded as the most up-to-date museum conception at the turn of the 19<sup>th</sup> to the 20<sup>th</sup> century, particularly because his ideas laid the foundations for the 21<sup>st</sup> century philosophy of museums. These Haban ceramics intended for the use of aristocrats also served as a material relic of the national consciousness of European nation-states.
