Madame Tussauds Budapest welcomes visitors with 51 Hungarian and international figures. The world's 24th Madame Tussauds production opened in Palazzo Dorottya at the end of May 2023. The new location of the world-famous 250-year-old brand includes halls for celebrities and the most famous figures of history, culture and science - among which 17 are related to Hungary.
Madame Tussauds Budapest brings 51 lifelike figures and their breathtaking installations to the public in this brand-new experience. Visitors can meet 17 Hungary-related figures, "who” have been created specifically for the Hungarian production in secret, in the Madame Tussauds studio near London.
As part of the planning phase, the public of Budapest were asked in a large-scale survey who they would like to see and were most interested in. As a result, historical figures, stars, athletes, cultural icons and a world-famous Hungarian scientist are all on the list. They include: Harry Houdini, Katinka Hosszú, Katalin Karády, Lajos Kossuth, Ferenc Liszt, Béla Lugosi, King Matthias, Mihály Munkácsy, János Neumann, Barbara Palvin, László Papp, Sándor Petőfi, Ferenc Puskás, Sissi, King Stephen I, István Széchenyi, and Jimmy Zambo.
At Madame Tussauds, guests can get up close and personal with the biggest Hollywood stars, famous singers, artists, historical figures and sportsmen. You can take a photo with them and learn about an iconic moment in their lives.
