Museum of Terror's House or House of Terror

Terror Háza

The building in the block of "Andrássy út 60." was used both by Nazis and the communist-led Political Police/State Security Police as headquarters. In the basement a labyrinth of prisons was created. Many people were jailed and starved or beaten to death here. 2002, the "house of fear" was converted into a stylish but depressing museum about Nazi and communist terror which helps visitors to understand Hungary's 20th century. You can rent an audioguide at the front desk for 2000 HUF. This is recommended because otherwise each room only has a paper flyer in English or Hungarian.
