Overview

In the company of a historian, come to grasp Budapest’s distinctive and elegant Art Nouveau constructions by visiting the finest examples of this specific style that represented the city’s new found affluence and cosmopolitanism at the turn-of-century.

What's included

  • 3-hour private stroll through Budapest’s greatest monuments of Art Nouveau in an intimate group guided by a historian
  • You guide will help you to purchase Budapest Tram and Metro tickets if you do not already have a visitor pass
  • Additional costs if this site is open on the day of your tour: Orthodox Synagogue on Kazinczy street

What to expect

  1. Gresham Palace
    20m
    Admire the facades and interior designs of the glorious Gresham Palace, once an office space and series of luxury apartments, and today Budapest’s most luxurious hotel.
  2. Postatakarek Bank
    20m
    Discover the flamboyant Royal Postal Savings Bank, designed by Ödön Lechner, also known as the Gaudi of Hungary, and discuss the interior design elements of the entrance hall.
  3. Thonet House
    20m
    Consider the use of tiles in facades that Hungarian Art Nouveau became famous for, as we pause at Thonet House, thanks to innovations by the famous Zsolnay porcelain and ceramics factory in Pécs, a town in the south of Hungary.

    25m · Admission ticket not included
    We conclude at the fascinating orthodox Kazinczy Street Synagogue, decorated in Art Nouveau style. Except on Saturdays, we enjoy a visit to the synagogue's interior.
