The staircase is flanked by eight 4-ton granite columns, which are amongst only 12 to have ever been made in the world.

The Hungarian Parliament's striking dome, standing at 96 meters tall, commemorates Hungary's settlement in 896 AD. Inside the Dome Hall, rests the Hungarian Holy Crown and Coronation Insignia since 2000. The hall features a rib vaulted dome, vibrant stained glass windows, and regal statues of Hungarian monarchs showcased on golden pedestals.
The Crown Jewels
The Holy Crown of Hungary, or the Crown of Saint Stephen, is vigilantly safeguarded in the Dome Hall. Visitors can view it alongside other Coronation insignia, like the Holy Orb with the cross, the Sceptre, and the Coronation Sword. Since the mid-12th century until 1916, over 50 monarchs have been crowned using this historic crown.

The Chamber of Peers, also known as the Old Upper House Chamber or House of Magnates, was used by the Upper House of the Diet (governing body) of Hungary from 1867 to 1918 and 1927 to 1945. This resplendent chamber boasts horseshoe seating, gold-plated decorations, and paintings of the coats of arms of Hungary’s royal families. Today, it is used to conduct conferences and meetings.
The Chamber of Peers Lounge
The Chamber of Peers Lounge is a large opulent room and, like most of the other significant areas inside Hungarian Parliament, is decorated with gold gilded ceilings and ornate paintings. The most distinctive feature of the room is the turquoise hand-knotted floor carpet, which is the largest hand-knotted rug in Europe.
Magnificent frescoes
The Hungarian Parliament building is adorned with several large frescoes painted by renowned artists like Károly Lotz and Mór Than. These artworks depict key historical moments and allegorical scenes from Hungary’s history, culture, and mythology, including the coronation of King Saint Stephen, the arrival of the Magyars in Hungary, and the Battle of Mohács.
Stained glass artworks
The Hungarian Parliament building features windows set with some of the world’s most exquisite stained glass artworks and glass mosaics. These were created by renowned Hungarian artist Miksa Roth in the late 19th and early 20th century. Roth’s vibrant colors and intricate designs add an enduring vitality to the building’s architecture while narrating stories of Hungary’s cultural heritage.
Statues & figurines
The facade and the interiors of the Hungarian Parliament building are adorned with around 250 statues and figurines. These commemorate pivotal people from Hungarian history, including rulers, political leaders, historical figures, cultural icons, and military figures.
