Library in the palace

As one of the most beautiful buildings of the so called palace quarter or “magnate quarter” of Pest, Wenckheim Palace has housed the Central Library of Metropolitan Ervin Szabó Library since 1931 (90 years). The listed building planned (and built) by Arthur Meinig was reconstructed at the turn of the millennium. Modern wings are also connected to the masterpiece of Hungarian Neo-Baroque architecture; it is a nice and unique sample of the harmony of the old and new; it is popular with both the visitors who like historic atmosphere and those who are interested in modern environment and up-to-date services. You can send a registration mail to koncertregisztracio@fszek.hu if you want to visit the library complex by a guided tour.
