Beautiful externally, but unable to visit inside as it is by appointment only and there is a long waiting list as they don't have regular guides. So warning don't follow incorrect information on websites. However, l would still recommend you come and admire.

This is the Hungarian Geological Institute building, designed by the great Ödön Lechner who is credited as being the father of Hungarian Art Nouveau. He has several outstanding buildings situated around Budapest and different parts of Europe. Im not sure what the schedule is, but I was able to email then and get a tour of the building with a group of students. Our guide did a really great job and was enthusiastic about what he was showing us, even though his true passion are rocks and minerals and not architecture. I really enjoyed being shown around the building and given some of its history, they say it is one of the best preserved original structures by Lechner. You know you are getting close to the building when you look up and see the blue tile roof with the incredible world globe being held up by 4 men. Such a great building!!
Beautiful building, and wonderful guided visit to the building and the collection. Note that it is not a museum so you have to book an appointment. It is really worth. Our guide was really inspiring!
A bit old building, but nice!
Building is incredible. We got a personal tour around the institute (booked in advance and the only way to get in) which included seeing their collection. Going on to the roof is a must do - great view of the city too.
Beautiful building and awesome inside
Friendly museum
Really cool building!
