House of Terror Museum

House of Terror Museum is a museum in Budapest. Terror Haza, or House of Terror in English, is one of the best museums in Budapest. Detailing the painful histories of Communist and Fascist regimes in Hungary, the museum is home to powerful exhibits and memorials.

It's an unflinching look at the country's political atrocities, but also a reminder that Hungary's freedom fighters didn't die in vain. visitor rating 5.0/5.
