HUNGARIAN STATE OPERA The Opera House is not only one of the most significant listed buildings of Budapest but number one institute of opera playing with a 300-year-old history as well as the symbol of Hungarian classical music culture. The Hungarian State Opera holds its absolute leading position in Hungarian theatrical life: besides the Paris Opera it is one of the greatest centres of integrated arts in the world. MAGYAR ÁLLAMI OPERAHÁZ Az Operaház nemcsak Budapest egyik legjelentősebb műemléke, hanem a háromszáz éves múltra visszatekintő magyar operajátszás első számú intézménye, komolyzenei kultúránk szimbóluma. A Magyar Állami Operaház magabiztosan őrzi abszolút első helyét a hazai színházi életben: a párizsi mellett, az egyik legnagyobb összművészeti centruma, integrált operaintézménye a világnak.

When the Müpa Budapest, Budapest and Hungary's long-awaited new cultural hub, opened in 2005, it was built to represent more than a hundred years of Hungarian cultural history. As a conglomeration of cultural venues, the building has no precedent in 20th century Hungarian architecture and has no peers in the whole of Central Europe. The creators of this ambitious project, the Trigránit Development Corporation, prime contractor Arcadom Construction and the Zoboki, Demeter and Partners Architectural Office, were driven by the desire to create a new European cultural citadel as part of the new Millennium City Centre complex along the UNESCO World Heritage-listed Danube waterfront. The result is a facility whose construction quality, appearance, functionality and 21st century technological infrastructure makes it ideally suited to productions of the highest standard. The building is also highly versatile and equipped to host performances of any genre and almost any scale.

The Hungarian National Museum, founded in 1802, is dedicated to preserving and sharing the rich cultural legacy of the Carpathian Basin and the Hungarian nation. Our mission is to collect, safeguard, and showcase artefacts representing thousands of years, from world-famous archaeological discoveries to priceless treasures of Hungarian cultural heritage. With a collection of millions of artefacts, we offer visitors and researchers a unique window into the past while connecting history to the present.
