Museum of Military History
Perched in Budapest’s historic Castle District, the Museum of Military History offers a compelling journey through Hungary’s martial past. Established in the early 1920s, the museum showcases an extensive collection of weaponry, uniforms, flags, and coins spanning from medieval times to the Cold War. Highlights include exhibits on the 1848–49 War of Independence, the Hungarian Royal Army under Admiral Miklós Horthy, and the 1956 Revolution. Though currently housed in a temporary location, the museum remains a vibrant research centre with a library and archives, hosting conferences and educational events. Visitors can explore outdoor displays, including cannons and a memory park with panoramic views of the Danube. The museum is set to relocate to a new site in Buda Castle by 2025–26, promising expanded exhibitions and modern facilities that will further enrich its role as a guardian of Hungary’s military heritage.
