Hall of Arts, Art museum and public building on Heroes' Square, Budapest, Hungary.
The Hall of Arts is an art museum and public building on Heroes' Square in Budapest featuring a Greek Revival portico and Neoclassical architecture. The structure houses multiple exhibition spaces illuminated by skylights, with a three-bayed apse organizing the interior volume.
Architect Albert Schickedanz completed the building in 1896 as part of Hungary's millennial celebrations marking a century of development in Budapest. The project emerged during a period when the city sought to establish itself as a modern European capital.
The museum presents temporary exhibitions of contemporary visual art and functions as a space for artistic dialogue and experimentation. Visitors experience how the institution engages with both established and emerging artistic voices.
The museum is open Tuesday through Sunday, with extended evening hours on Thursdays for flexible visiting. The entire building is fully wheelchair accessible, ensuring easy navigation through all exhibition areas.
The institution collaborates directly with the Hungarian Academy of Arts and features a specialized bookshop overlooking the grand Heroes' Square below. This blend of artistic programming and literary space creates a distinctive setting for cultural exchange.
