In the Budapest Citadel there is a memorial dedicated to the Second World War. During World War II, the headquarters of the German air defense was located in the Citadel. From here, the Germans shelled Pest for several days in a row, defending themselves from the advancing Soviet troops. You can estimate the scale of the destruction of Pest from the photographs hung right there. Some buildings could not be restored in their original form, for example, the bridge of Erzhebeta. Since the Citadel is located on the highest point in Budapest, beautiful views open from here that attract tourists much more than the fortification itself.
Entrance to the territory of the Citadel is free, visiting the exhibition and the bunker is for an extra charge.
