Budapest Museums

(Budapest, Hungary)

With well over 50 different museums available, visitors to Budapest will find plenty to keep them occupied. You don't need to be a history buff to enjoy them, although the Budapest History Museum on Castle Hill is a definite highlight.

The museums of Budapest are diverse and include religious exhibits at the Bible Museum, a host of police paraphernalia at the Crime Museum, history fire engines and related equipment at the popular Fire Brigade Museum, and everything that you could ever possibly want to know about phone technology at the Telephone Museum.


For many, the outstanding Roman remains at the Budapest Aquincum Museum are quite simply a must-see attraction and visitors can expect to see a series of outdoor Roman remains and ancient treasures. Also worth a look is the Flight Museum at the SAP Exhibition Hall in District XIV, where one of Hungary's very first space capsules is amongst the main attractions.

The family orientated Foundry Museum of Hungarian Museum Science and Technology is also popular and located within Budapest's District II, being filled with interactive fun and plenty of rather impressive machines from both the past and present.
