Art Nouveau in Hungarian Architecture

The "Belle Époque" was a fascinating era when Hungarian culture - literature, music, fine and applied arts, as well as architecture - flourished. The richness of this period has been unparalleled ever since. Besides Budapest, which especially abounds in masterpieces of Art Nouveau, Jugendstil, National Romanticism and proto-Modernism, country towns all over the historical Hungary also boast of a treasury of landmark buildings.
