Two years after the death of György Ráth in 1907, the György Ráth Museum opened in the ground floor rooms of the villa on Városligeti fasor 12. The front hall, study, Gems room, parlor, sitting room, and picture gallery were opened to the public. These rooms preserved the furnishings as they were in Ráth’s lifetime, with only a few display cabinets added. The former library became the museum office. After Ráth’s death (1905), his widow lived on the upper floor of the villa for the remainder of her life, until 1917. The rooms were remodeled according to her needs, which meant the layouts and functions of some rooms changed. The large and stately upstairs dining parlor, which had been used for receiving guests of the family prior to 1905, was now occasionally used by the museum for larger receptions.
