House of Terror Museum, Memorial museum in Budapest District VI, Hungary
The House of Terror Museum occupies a building at Andrássy Avenue 60, featuring exhibits about totalitarian regimes that controlled Hungary during the 20th century.
The structure served as headquarters for both the Arrow Cross Party during Nazi occupation and later the State Protection Authority under communist rule.
The permanent exhibition presents documents, photographs, and objects that document the periods of Nazi and Communist control over Hungarian society.
The museum welcomes visitors from Tuesday through Sunday between 10:00 and 18:00, offering audio guides in multiple languages for international guests.
