HUThe Hungarian Military History Museum is returning to its original home, Buda Castle, according to László Kürtös, parliamentary secretary at the Ministry of Defense. The museum previously had to leave its location twice—once during World War II due to the Red Army's advance and again in 2023 due to a political decision. Kürtös emphasized that the museum belongs in Buda Castle, where it now plans to relocate. This move was confirmed by Prime Minister Viktor Orbán through a government decree in 2024, directing the museum to move to property under Dísz Square 17. Earlier, in 2022, then-defense minister Kristóf Szalay-Bobrovniky justified the relocation by stating the museum needed to better meet modern challenges and be more accessible. However, recent developments suggest the museum will remain in Budapest rather than being moved to Debrecen, as previously planned.
