area bordered by M\u00fazeum Street and Reviczky Street, we invite our readers to discover the K\u00e1rolyi\u2013Csekonics Palace, which opens onto both streets. The currently visible building complex is the result of an exceptionally exciting reconstruction project, completed and handed over on 1 September 2021.\nThe building at M\u00fazeum Street 17 underwent a complete heritage restoration. The Ballroom, the Grand Staircase, the Smoking Room, the Csekonics Hall and the Aula were all restored to their former splendour<sup>1<\/sup>. Visitors are welcomed by true aristocratic magnificence, as they are transported back to the atmosphere of the 1880s.\nThe Ballroom\u2019s fresco, The Triumph of Bacchus by K\u00e1roly Lotz, has been brought back to life. The original artwork was completely destroyed during the bombings of the Second World War and later functional alterations to the building. The inlaid parquet flooring was recreated, the walls received artificial marble coverings, and the plaster stucco decorations were restored<sup>2<\/sup>.\nThe breathtaking Grand Staircase, with its steps and gallery carved from oak and linden wood in the 19th century, fortunately survived partly intact. Today, visitors can admire the original staircase after careful restoration.\nIn the Smoking Room, the K\u00e1rolyi\u2013Csekonics family once hosted balls and social gatherings for their aristocratic friends. Contemporary photographs, postcards and architectural drawings were invaluable during the historically accurate renovation process, allowing art historians and restoration specialists to study the palace\u2019s architectural past through original sources<sup>3<\/sup>.\nDuring the 19th and early 20th centuries, the representative rooms and private apartments of the count\u2019s family were located here<sup>4<\/sup>. Today, the building houses the rector\u2019s office, the senate office and additional ceremonial spaces<sup>5<\/sup>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div

Modern university facilities have been created here, including lecture halls, seminar rooms, a library and recreational spaces, together with all the necessary infrastructure.

the Csekonics family. They later gave it as a wedding gift to their daughter, Margit Csekonics<sup>7<\/sup>. Her husband was Count Istv\u00e1n K\u00e1rolyi, who was a member of parliament, president of the National Casino, honorary president of the Caritas Charity Association, and a member of the board of the Hungarian Academy of Sciences and the National Riding School<sup>8<\/sup>. The couple commissioned the construction of the Neo-Baroque palace between 1881 and 1885. The design was entrusted to Ferdinand Fellner and Hermann Helmer, architects whose famous works include the Vienna Volkstheater, the V\u00edgsz\u00ednh\u00e1z in Budapest, the National Theatres of Szeged and Cluj-Napoca, and the Katona J\u00f3zsef Theatre in Kecskem\u00e9t<sup>9<\/sup>.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-6918b8c gallery-spacing-custom elementor-widget-mobile__width-inherit elementor-widget elementor-widget-image-gallery\" data-id=\"6918b8c\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"image-gallery.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-image-gallery\">\n\t\t\t<div id='gallery-3' class='gallery galleryid-3927 gallery-columns-2 gallery-size-2048x2048'><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"6918b8c\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"karolyi-csekonics-28\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MzkzNiwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL21hZ3lhcnZpbGxhay5odVwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyNFwvMDhcL2thcm9seWktY3Nla29uaWNzLTI4LndlYnAiLCJzbGlkZXNob3ciOiI2OTE4YjhjIn0%3D\" href='https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-28.webp'><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1945\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-28-1945x2048.webp\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-28-1945x2048.webp 1945w, https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-28-285x300.webp 285w, https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-28-972x1024.webp 972w, https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-28-768x809.webp 768w, https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-28-1459x1536.webp 1459w, https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-28.webp 2000w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1945px) 100vw, 1945px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure><figure class='gallery-item'>\n\t\t\t<div class='gallery-icon portrait'>\n\t\t\t\t<a data-elementor-open-lightbox=\"yes\" data-elementor-lightbox-slideshow=\"6918b8c\" data-elementor-lightbox-title=\"karolyi-csekonics-33\" data-e-action-hash=\"#elementor-action%3Aaction%3Dlightbox%26settings%3DeyJpZCI6MzkzOCwidXJsIjoiaHR0cHM6XC9cL21hZ3lhcnZpbGxhay5odVwvd3AtY29udGVudFwvdXBsb2Fkc1wvMjAyNFwvMDhcL2thcm9seWktY3Nla29uaWNzLTMzLXNjYWxlZC53ZWJwIiwic2xpZGVzaG93IjoiNjkxOGI4YyJ9\" href='https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-33-scaled.webp'><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1365\" height=\"2048\" src=\"https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-33-1365x2048.webp\" class=\"attachment-2048x2048 size-2048x2048\" alt=\"\" decoding=\"async\" srcset=\"https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-33-1365x2048.webp 1365w, https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-33-200x300.webp 200w, https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-33-683x1024.webp 683w, https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-33-768x1152.webp 768w, https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-33-1024x1536.webp 1024w, https:\/\/magyarvillak.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2024\/08\/karolyi-csekonics-33-scaled.webp 1707w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1365px) 100vw, 1365px\" \/><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div><\/figure>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-8efab10 elementor-widget elementor-widget-text-editor\" data-id=\"8efab10\" data-element_type=\"widget\" data-e-type=\"widget\" data-widget_type=\"text-editor.default\">\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-widget-container\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"translation-block\">After Margit\u2019s death, the M\u00fazeum Street building housed the French Embassy<sup>10<\/sup> from 1918. In 1938, K\u00e1rolyi Melinda, the daughter of Margit and K\u00e1roly, leased the building to the Baross Association of Merchants, Industrialists and Related Professions<sup>11<\/sup>. During the Second World War, the palace was hit by bombs and suffered severe damage. It was rebuilt afterwards, but unfortunately the original state was not fully restored. Later, several embassies moved into the building, followed by the National Technical Library, a student information centre and offices of the Public Administration and Justice Authority. The palace received official heritage protection in 2004<sup>12<\/sup>. In 2015, a government decision was made that after reconstruction, the building complex would become the property of the Reformed Church in Hungary<sup>13<\/sup>. The K\u00e1roli\u2013Csekonics Palace, reopened in 2021, now serves a dual purpose. The M\u00fazeum Street wing functions as both a university centre and an event venue, while the Reviczky Street wing has been taken over by university students, who now enjoy a modern educational environment within a former aristocratic residence.<\/p><p>Although the building complex is impressive from the outside, it hides a true architectural gem inside, providing a unique atmosphere and extraordinary spaces for events. It is particularly pleasing that its role as a representative and social centre has continued: today, an active university life takes place within the walls of the former aristocratic palace, which was once filled with grand social gatherings.<\/p>\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<\/div>\n\t\t\t\t<div class=\"elementor-element elementor-element-7220487 elementor-widget
