Reconstruction of Buda Castle: New Renderings Published The reconstruction of Buda Castle continues, including the renovation of Hunyadi Courtyard. The area in front of the palace will be enhanced with period-style lanterns, benches, and waste bins, along with newly planted greenery. As part of the project, the northern wing of the palace, originally designed by Hauszmann, will be restored, and St. George Street will regain its historical appearance. The eastern part of the street will be raised by three meters, while the western side will remain at its current level. Instead of rebuilding the lost stable building, which won't be restored due to space constraints, the area will be divided into two levels with a retaining wall made of natural limestone. What will change in Hunyadi Courtyard? - Authentic lanterns, benches, and waste bins will be installed. - Roads and sidewalks will be paved with cobblestones. - Green spaces will be expanded with new trees and shrubs. - Flower beds with an automatic irrigation system will be added. Hunyadi Courtyard was originally developed in the late 19th and early 20th centuries during the reconstruction of Buda Castle under the direction of Alajos Hauszmann. After World War II, the area underwent significant changes, and the stables that once stood there were demolished.
