Historical Origin And Design Inspiration

Buda Castle (Hungarian: Budai Vr, Turkish: Budin Kalesi) is the historical castle of the Hungarian kings in Budapest, Hungary. In the past, it was also called Royal Palace (Hungarian: Kirlyi-palota) and Royal Castle (Hungarian: Kirlyi Vr). Buda Castle was built on the southern tip of Castle Hill, next to the old Castle District (Hun: Vrnegyed), which is famous for its medieval, Baroque and 19th century houses and public buildings. It is linked to Adam Clark Square and the SzÃ©chenyi Chain Bridge by the Castle Hill Funicular.

Buda Castle during the Middle Ages.The oldest part of the present-day palace was built in the 14th century by Prince Stephen, Duke of Slavonia the younger brother of King Louis I of Hungary. The Gothic palace of King Louis I was arranged around a narrow courtyard next to Stephen's Tower. King Sigismund Luxemburg of Hungary greatly enlarged the palace. During his long reign it became probably the largest Gothic palace of the late Middle Ages. Buda was also an important artistic centre of the International Gothic style.

The last phase of grand-scale building activity happened under King Matthias Corvinus, when Italian humanists, artists and craftsmen arrived at Buda. The Hungarian capital became the first centre of Renaissance north of the Alps. After the Battle of Mohcs the medieval Kingdom of Hungary collapsed. On 29 August 1541 Buda was occupied again by the Ottomans without any resistance. The Hungarian capital became part of the Ottoman Empire as the seat of the Eyalet of Budin.
