The latest temporary exhibition of the Military History Museum is open till December 2020. The exhibition presents both the key events of the Liberation War in Hungary (1683-1699) and the results of the archaeological excavation at the battle scene close to Harsány Hill which took place in 2019. The exhibition displays artefacts from different collections of the Hungarian Military History Museum and archaeological finds (such as weapons, equipment, coins, personal items and trappings excavated from the spot) from the collection of the Janus Pannonius Museum, Pécs. The Battle at Harsány Hill is one of the best-documented military clashes of the Liberation War (or wars) in Hungary. Several war diaries, military and diplomacy reports, news items, war paintings, personal letters and memoirs reported about the battle. The engagement sometimes is referenced with geographical names like ‘Harsány Hill’ or Siklós. It was also called the second Battle of Mohács in the 17th Century, although the defeat at Mohács in 1526, which marked the end of the Medieval Hungarian State, plays a much more significant role in the nation’s collective memory than the great Christian victory over the Ottomans in 1687. Today, memorials of the battle can be found in Mohács, Nagyharsány and Villány. The complex investigation of the battlefield, which included written and painted sources, as well as archaeological finds, was a major military history venture. There have been very few similarly systematic and meticulous archaeological explorations, with the use of metal detector, on the scenes of battles or engagements in the territory of former Greater Hungary. Only some of the most important battles from Hungarian history, such as Muhi (1241), Mohács (1526), Harsány Hill (1687), Romhány (1710), Kismegyer (1809) and Segesvár (1849) were unfolded completely. The field survey with metal detectors in 2019, led by the Janus Pannonius Museum and the Military History Museum, explored an area of approximately 7 square kilometres (2.7 square miles) near Villány, Beremend, Hlocska, Lapáncsa and Magyarbóly. Volunteers with metal detectors, along with professional archaeologists excavated 540 metal objects from which 329 objects can hypothetically be related to the battle in 1687.
