Farkasréti Cemetery

It opened in 1894 and is noted for its extensive views of the city (several people wanted it more to be a resort area than a cemetery).

It comprises tombs of numerous Hungarian notables and it is the most preferred burial place among actors, actresses and other artists (opera singers, musicians, painters, sculptors, architects, writers, poets).

The mortuary hall and the new chapel were built in the 1980s to the plans of Imre Makovecz.

It is located in Buda (the Western part of Budapest), approximately 3 km away from the downtown.

The oldest grave that is still located in its original place is that of the mechanical engineer Ferenc Cathry Szaléz, the designer of the Rack railway in Budapest and the original Mária Valéria bridge in Esztergom.
