Explore the Gellért Hill cave cable car
Meilleur moment pour visiter
Weekday mornings around 9 AM offer the fewest crowds and the quietest atmosphere. The caves stay at a constant 12°C year-round, so summer afternoons provide a refreshing escape from the heat.
Conseils budget
Entry costs around 2,500 HUF (roughly $7 USD) for adults with a small discount for students and seniors. The Budapest Card knocks 20% off the ticket price, and combo deals with the nearby Citadella save about 500 HUF.

À propos
Faits rapides: Trois niveaux de salles souterraines s'étendent sur près de 30 mètres sous la colline, creusés à la main directement dans le calcaire tendre. Plus de 1 500 personnes pouvaient s'y abriter lors des raids aériens, et les tunnels étaient autrefois reliés à un hôpital et à un monastère au-dessus.
Points forts: Un petit bassin alimenté par une source se trouve toujours dans l'une des salles les plus profondes, où la température avoisine 12 °C toute l'année. Les visiteurs peuvent toucher les véritables barreaux d'échelle sculptés à la main laissés par les habitants des grottes du XVIIIe siècle qui faisaient autrefois de ces tunnels leur demeure.
Conseils d'initiés
- Wear closed-toe shoes with grip, the limestone floors stay damp and slippery even in dry weather.
- Photography without flash works best in the main chambers, but the deepest tunnels are too dark for phone cameras.
- Skip the audio guide and read the printed panels instead, the narration moves too slowly through the narrow corridors.
- Arrive right at opening time to have the upper chambers nearly to yourself for the first 15 minutes.
