This gatehouse tower greets visitors to Vajdahunyad Castle on the northwestern side of the castle and reproduction of a medieval gatehouse. There is a small entry fee that is well worth your time to visit, since it provides a view of the castle and park grounds from two different perspectives. The first part of your visit is self-guided to the gatehouse walkway above the entrance gate. There you can spend as much time as you like, even though you will only be able to walk above the gate area. The second part is a guided tour of the castle tower, which lasts depending on your guide and number of people, approximately 20 minutes. We were very lucky to only have four people, and our guide was great and allowed us more than ample time to view the area, take photos and ask a lot of questions. I think we were there for at least 25 minutes before heading down into the museum. Visiting these two locations gives you a much better appreciation for the castle and park complex.

The Gatehouse Tower in Budapest’s City Park is a captivating historical landmark, featuring beautiful neo-Renaissance architecture. This charming tower serves as an ornamental entrance to the park, offering a glimpse into the city’s rich history. It’s an ideal starting point for exploring the park’s attractions, such as Vajdahunyad Castle, Széchenyi Baths, and the nearby boating lake. Whether you’re strolling through the park or simply enjoying the surroundings, the Gatehouse Tower provides a peaceful and picturesque setting. It’s a must-see for history lovers and photographers alike!

Si vas a los famosos e impronunciables baños de Széchenyi que hay frente a él o a la plaza de los Héroes majiares, no debes dejar de visitar el castillo de Vajdahunyad (en húngaro, Vajdahunyad vára) que se encuentra en el Parque de la Ciudad. Se construyó entre 1896 y 1908 según el diseño de Ignác Alpár. En parte, se trata de una copia del castillo de Hunyad, en Transilvania, Rumania, aunque también es una muestra de diferentes estilos arquitectónicos. Inicialmente se levantó en madera y cartón para la exposición de 1896, pero tuvo tanto éxito que se reconstruyó utilizando piedra y ladrillo. Hoy en día, alberga el Museo de Agricultura. No merece la pena pagar para subir a la torre que hay a su entrada, sin embargo sí que merece la pena visitarlo iluminado por la noche. Junto a él se encuentra la pista de hielo más grande de Europa, que está siempre muy concurrida en las tardes invernales. Junto al castillo hay también una preciosa iglesia románica, completamente reconstruida, y al lado la misteriosa estatua de Anonimus, también en los terrenos del castillo, es la imagen de un cronista del siglo XII (probablemente del rey Béla II), y autor de los primeros libros históricos sobre los antiguos húngaros, basados en su mayor parte en leyendas. Él puso nombre a los reyes magiares de las distintas tribus siglos después de que se fundara el país magiar, esto es, Hungría.
