The Budapest Museum of Fine Arts is opening its exhibition on the heritage of ancient Mesopotamia, the first on the period in Hungary, on Saturday, organisers said on Thursday.

The exhibition features “fantastic works from several European collections, creating a comprehensive exhibition that comes together only once or twice in a decade,” Baán said.

The exhibition “Kingdom of Gods and Demons. Mesopotamia 1,000-500 BCE” will run through February 2.
