Budapest Memento Park Entrance Ticket

Do you think history is already a thing of the past? Are you completely sure? In Budapest's Memento Park, the still fresh specter of communism remains ever present. This unique and fascinating cultural park commemorates the personality cult of communism, displaying imposing statues of the leading figures of that ideology, such as Stalin, Lenin, Marx and Engels.

As you walk through the park, you'll come across 42 communist-era propaganda statues, all devoid of their obedient followers and armies. This open-air museum represents a deep analysis of dictatorship, democracy and the fine line that separates them. Plus, it's extremely impressive.

It is a unique experience to come face to face with authentic relics of totalitarian ideology. At Memento Park, you'll find statues removed after the fall of Hungarian Communism as you explore an environment that gives you the freedom to reflect on that era.

After becoming familiar with the symbols of communist propaganda, you will be prepared to enter the life of a secret police agent. "The Life of an Agent "(The Life of an Agent) is a short film made from original material that documents the secret and, in many cases, brutal tactics used by spies and police of the communist era.

To finish your visit, you will have a last photo session next to the emblematic Trabant car. This vehicle has become a representative symbol of the difficulties of the communist industry due to its total lack of tachometer, headlights, turn signals, fuel gauge, seat belts rear security doors and external fuel door.
