Light and Shadow - Budapest in 1000 years

2012. 04. 27.

The exhibiton shows the 1000 year history of Budapest, the Hungarian capital. The story palette is from ancient premises to the end of communism.

Here is a town in front of us, on the banks of the Danube, in between the Great Plane and hills. How did the seat of Hungarian kingdom end up being built on the center of Roman Province, in Aquincum. How did it perish during Ottoman wars?

 

How did Pest, Buda and Óbuda end up fusing, and how did the town become one of the fastest developing metropolises in Central Europe at the turn of the 19th to the 20th century? How did WWII demolish the city and how did Grand Budapest shape? 

 

You can find the answers for these questions on the exhibiton!
