The name of ’Jász House’ (Ördög Józsefné – +36 57 531 062) clearly shows that the jász (Jazygian) patriotic consciousness was different from the Hungarian. Besides visiting the house you can observe the most significant craft of the village which was carriage making. Alajos Tóth carriage maker (20/925-3825) is pleased to introduce the ancient time travel customs to you. The other craft is basketwork at the house of Zoltán Kovács (30 312 1873).
