About

The Budapest History Museum – Castle Museum is one of the most significant museums in Budapest, located in a wing of the former Royal Palace facing Gellért Hill. It presents the defining events, artifacts and documents of the Budapest's history. Visitors can walk through the restored rooms of the medieval palace, the former Castle Chapel and discover the museum's unique treasures. How the Roman provincial center was developped: Aquincum, and then the glorious seat of the medieval Kingdom of Hungary on its ruins? How did it all get destroyed during the wars and sieges of the Ottoman era? How did Pest, Buda and Óbuda achieve unification and become one of the fastest growing metropolises in Central Europe? How did the Second World War perish the peacetime metropolis, and how did the greater Budapest take shape? Those who interested in visiting the museum can find answers to all these questions and many more.
