Madame Tussauds Budapest

Madame Tussauds Budapest is a wax museum in the city center displaying over 50 carefully crafted figures of celebrities, sports stars, and political leaders. The figures are arranged in different themed zones where visitors can get close to them and take photos.

The museum opened in Budapest in 2014 as part of the global Madame Tussauds franchise that traces back to Marie Tussaud, who began making wax figures in 18th century London. The tradition of creating lifelike wax replicas has expanded worldwide since those early days.

The Hungarian Spirit section features local personalities displayed alongside international celebrities, allowing visitors to see their own cultural figures represented in wax. This blend of national and global entertainment figures creates a unique setting where visitors can connect with both local and worldwide pop culture.

The museum is open daily with extended hours on weekends, making it accessible for most visitors. Buying tickets in advance online helps avoid queues during busy times.

Visitors can create custom wax hand casts as personal souvenirs during their visit. This hands-on activity offers a tangible memory of the experience beyond typical photography.
