Hungarian History: Medieval Kingdom and Historic Sites

The medieval Kingdom of Hungary brought together royal strongholds, episcopal centres, monasteries and towns across territories now divided among several countries. Its surviving buildings include castles in Slovakia, royal palace remains in Budapest and fortified gateways in Transylvania. These places provide a starting point for exploring the kingdom’s rulers, institutions and religious foundations. The map also includes later buildings connected with Hungarian history, distinguishing their construction phases and local identities. Hungary’s later connections with Habsburg rule and Austria–Hungary also feature within the Habsburg collection.
