The Kincsem Palace

The history of the palace

The Kincsem Palace, built at the end of the 19th century, is one of the most beautiful downtown palaces of Budapest, where luxurious soirees were held and European royalty visited.

The Kincsem Palace is one of the most beautiful and most famous downtown palaces in Budapest, with a history dating back to the end of the 19th century. It was built in 1878 by Ernő Blaskovich, who was not only the owner of the palace but also the proud owner of the legendary Kincsem racehorse. The palace was the venue for sumptuous banquets, attended not only by the Hungarian aristocracy but also by European royalty such as the Prince of Wales, the German Emperor and the King of Spain.

We are now reopening our doors to the public to make this special atmosphere accessible to all.

Kincsem horse

Kincsem horse "Hungarian Wonder”

Ernő Blaskovich, the builder and owner of the house, was the owner of the "Hungarian Wonder", or Kincsem horse. The English thoroughbred, who has competed in 54 gallops around the world and has never been beaten.

Although the plans for the house were drawn up before the horse's first appearance on the track, his popularity was clearly due to the success of the racehorse. When Kincsem wasn't on the track, he lived in the stables built for him in the inner courtyard of the house, which can still be seen today. We have commemorated this with a life-like sculpture by sculptor Géza Nagy.
