Hungarian Parliament highlights
The City Side Staircase XVII
The Hungarian Parliament tour begins with the City Side Staircase XVII or the Golden Staircase, which leads to the main floor. It's quite the sight – think gold-plated accents, stunning stained glass windows, lively frescoes, grand statues, and paintings lining the walls. You'll also catch glimpses of the bustling Kossuth Square outside as you climb the staircase.
The Grand Stairway
The Grand Stairway, with 96 steps covered in a gorgeous red carpet, connects the main entrance to the Dome Hall. Its ceiling is adorned with two large frescoes by renowned painter Károly Lotz, while the windows on both sides have ornate stained glass artwork by Miksa Róth. And don't forget the eight 4-ton granite columns! Fun fact: there are only 12 of these in the entire world.
The Dome Hall
The Hungarian Parliament's striking dome, standing at 96 meters tall, commemorates Hungary's settlement in 896 AD. This hall has been home to the Hungarian Holy Crown and Coronation Insignia since 2000. It features a rib vaulted dome, vibrant stained glass windows, and statues of Hungarian monarchs showcased on golden pedestals.
The Chamber of Peers
Back in the day, from 1867 to 1918 and again from 1927 to 1945, The Chamber of Peers, also known as the Old Upper House Chamber or House of Magnates, was the hotspot for Hungary's Upper House of the Diet, their governing body. It boasts horseshoe-shaped seating, lavish gold-plated decorations, and stunning paintings showcasing the coats of arms of Hungary's royal families. It's still in use for hosting conferences and meetings.
Statues & figurines
The facade and the interiors of the Hungarian Parliament building are adorned with around 250 statues and figurines. These commemorate pivotal people from Hungarian history, including rulers, political leaders, historical figures, cultural icons, and military figures. Created by various artists, these sculptures contribute to the building's ambiance, showcasing the nation's legacy and providing a tangible link to Hungary's past.
The Chamber of Peers Lounge
The Chamber of Peers Lounge is a large opulent room and, like most of the other significant areas inside Hungarian Parliament, is decorated with gold gilded ceilings and ornate paintings. The most distinctive feature of the room is the turquoise hand-knotted floor carpet. It is the largest hand-knotted carpet in Europe.
Magnificent frescoes
The Hungarian Parliament building is adorned with several large frescoes painted by renowned artists like Károly Lotz and Mór Than. These artworks depict historical moments and allegorical scenes from Hungary's history, culture, and mythology, including King Saint Stephen's coronation, the arrival of the Magyars in Hungary, and the Battle of Mohács.
Stained glass artworks
You will see windows with some of the most exquisite stained glass artworks and glass mosaics in the world. These were created by renowned Hungarian artist Miksa Roth in the late 19th and early 20th century. Roth's vibrant colors and intricate designs add an enduring vitality to the building's architecture while narrating stories of Hungary's cultural heritage.
The Hungarian Crown
The Hungarian Crown, also known as the Crown of Saint Stephen, is one of Hungary’s most sacred national symbols. Dating back to the 11th century, it was used to coronate nearly every Hungarian king. Distinctive for its tilted cross and Byzantine-style enamel panels, the crown represents Hungary’s medieval Christian heritage and royal authority.
