East Slovak Museum

The East Slovak Museum (Slovak: Východoslovenské múzeum) in Košice, Slovakia, is one of the oldest Slovak museums; it was founded in 1872.

A neo-Renaissance building was erected in the early 20th century. It was the first building in the town designed to serve its needs as a museum. There are sculptures of Perseus and Vulcan on the facade of the building.^{[citation needed]}

The museum has a relocated wooden church that was built in 1741.^[1]
