Museum of Applied Arts

The Museum of Applied Arts in Budapest is an architectural masterpiece itself, housed in a stunning Art Nouveau building designed by Ödön Lechner and Gyula Pártos. Its unique green roof and distinctive Zsolnay tiles make it one of the city's most recognizable landmarks. The museum's collections trace the history of decorative arts through various periods and styles. It features exquisite examples of furniture, textiles, ceramics, glass, metalwork, and jewelry from Hungary and around the world, spanning from antiquity to the present day. While the main permanent exhibition is currently under renovation, the building itself is a sight to behold, and temporary exhibitions often provide fascinating insights into specific aspects of decorative arts. It's a must-visit for lovers of architecture and design.
