Architecture

The Hungarian Parliament Building is the seat of the National Assembly, the unicameral legislative body of Hungary. Since its completion in 1902, it has been Hungary's largest building. Built mainly in Neo-Gothic style, its 96 meter high central dome, however, is of Renaissance Revival architecture.
