Bory Castle, Castle and art museum in Székesfehérvár, Hungary

The castle spans seven towers and thirty rooms across multiple levels, reaching a height of 30 meters from its lowest dungeon to highest observation point.

Hungarian sculptor Jeno Bory constructed this castle between 1923 and 1959 without formal blueprints, expanding it gradually while serving as architect and builder.

The castle galleries display hundreds of sculptures, paintings, and mosaics created by Bory, including portraits of his wife and representations of Hungarian historical figures.

Visitors can explore the castle grounds, three art studios, and the Court of Hundred Columns daily from 9:00 AM to 5:00 PM throughout the year.

The structure combines Scottish, Romanesque, and Gothic architectural elements with two symbolic centers: the Chapel of Marital Love and the Studio Gallery.
