Amade-Bajzáth-Pappenheim-Károlyi Castle, Baroque palace in Iszkaszentgyörgy, Hungary.
The Amade-Bajzáth-Pappenheim-Károlyi Castle is a palace in Iszkaszentgyörgy with two main wings joined by a corridor. The structure displays Neo-baroque ornaments, stone pillars, and decorative window frames across its entire facade.
The original structure was built in 1735 under Amadé Antal's direction. The eastern wing was added later in 1764 by Amadé Tádé, significantly expanding the complex.
The building shows how Hungarian noble families shaped the space to match their tastes over time, moving from Baroque to Neo-baroque design. These choices reveal what mattered to them and how they wanted to live.
The Neo-baroque section currently serves as a primary school, while other areas await renovation and development. Keep in mind that active school operations may limit access to certain sections during the day.
The grounds contain one of Hungary's rarest formal gardens with geometric patterns and terraced landscapes. This special garden was designed by gardener Schusstig in the early 1900s.
