Budapestin linnat ja palatsit

Castles and Palaces

Budapest’s architectural landscape is defined by its strategic fortifications and royal residences. This selection spans from the medieval foundations and Baroque expansions of Buda Castle to the eclectic Vajdahunyad Castle, which replicates various Hungarian architectural styles. It includes the Neo-Romanesque Fisherman’s Bastion and the Neoclassical Sándor Palace, the official seat of the presidency. Beyond grand palaces, the list features the 13th-century ruins of the Church of Saint Mary Magdalene and the Várkert Bazár’s exhibition spaces, illustrating the city's evolution from a medieval stronghold to a modern cultural hub.
