Castle Hill

The winding cobblestone streets and leafy promenades of Castle Hill lead past baroque houses, Habsburg monuments and cafes including early 19th-century Ruszwurm. Key attractions include Buda Castle, a palace razed and rebuilt over centuries, now home to the Hungarian National Gallery and Budapest History Museum. The turrets and terraces of Fisherman’s Bastion offer views over the Danube and nearby Matthias Church.
