Anker Palace, Art Nouveau building in Terézváros, Hungary
The Anker Palace features a pyramidal central tower topped with a globe supported by eagles and female figures holding hourglasses along the facade.
Constructed in 1910 by architect Ignác Alpár, the building replaced three existing structures, including a former brothel at the location since 1864.
The Galileo Circle, an intellectual organization that influenced Hungarian society, operated from the Anker Palace between 1910 and 1919.
Located at the intersection near Deák Ferenc Square, the palace stands at coordinates 47.4979°N and 19.0553°E in central Budapest.
The building generated controversy upon its completion, with even the architect's wife expressing doubt about its unconventional appearance.
