Visiting Budapest: 3 - 4 Day Suggested Itinerary (Updated 2025)

"This museum, housed in the former headquarters of Hungary’s secret police and the Arrow Cross, delivers a harrowing look at life under fascist and Communist regimes with four floors of propaganda, weapons, multimedia displays, and sobering context about the tens of thousands killed or imprisoned." - Matthew Kepnes
