Description

The history of this former Horthy officers’ residence building evokes the lives of famous inhabitants, singers, writers from the Hegyvidék (Highlands) district in the interwar period. It tells the stories of the bombings suffered during the siege of Budapest, of everyday life in the air cellars, of the establishment  of community activities in the house and in the green courtyard – up to the present days.
