Mace Tower

Buzogánytorony

The Tower is one of the characteristic structures of the southern end of today's Buda Castle. It stands on the corner of the southern closing wall of the Castle, next to the Ferdinánd Gate leading from Tabán to the Palace. Its cylindrical thin, completely vertical wall was built of quadrangular stones, and a small terrace with portholes and a wooden shingle roof was formed in the head of the “mace”. The body of the tower is of medieval origin, but the upper part was made entirely in the middle of the 20th century.
