Royal Palace and Medieval Buda Castle

Art, history, myths and legends are hidden in the mythical Buda Castle, Fisherman's Bastion and Royal Palace, standing majestically on the Danube hill.

Things to do Royal Palace and Medieval Buda Castle

Come and visit it with us. Within its walls are both the Royal Palace and the medieval city, both listed as World Heritage sites by Unesco, and during the visit we will see, from north to south, absolutely everything.

We will access the castle grounds by crossing the Vienna Gate. Did you know that it is the oldest entrance to the fortress?

We will pass in front of the National Archives and next to the Church of María Magdalena, two buildings that stand out especially among the cobbled streets.

We will see the facade of the Palace of the Archbishop of Hungary and the Nazi operations center in World War II. We will walk along Uri street, a medieval street that will captivate you from the first moment

Also in our visit you can not miss a visit to the famous Ruszwurm pastry shop, or enjoy the spectacular panoramas that the Fisherman's Bastion and other secret viewpoints will offer us, which will be a delight for photography lovers.

It is very important to keep in mind that the Buda Castle, due to its fundamental geo-strategic position, throughout its history has passed through different hands (Hungarians, Ottomans, Austrians, etc.).

So the many times that has been built and rebuilt makes the presence of a professional interpreter essential to understand its evolution.
