Selyemgombolyító, Industrial heritage building in Óbuda, Hungary

The Selyemgombolyító features an oval floor plan and a curved staircase leading to two entrance doors on its main facade.

Emperor Joseph II commissioned Italian silk expert Mazzocato to establish this silk-winding facility in Óbuda during the 1780s to strengthen Hungary's silk industry.

The structure represents the late 18th-century Zopf architectural style, combining industrial functionality with period design elements.

Located at Miklós Square 1, the building currently houses offices and can be reached by buses 9, 34, 106, or the H5 suburban railway to Szentlélek Square.

The oval-shaped industrial building stands as the last remaining silk production facility from the Habsburg era in Budapest's third district.
