Buda Castle is the historic palace complex of the Hungarian kings, on the southern tip of Castle Hill in District I of Budapest, Hungary. First completed in 1265, the Baroque palace that occupies most of the site was built between 1749 and 1769, then severely damaged in World War II and rebuilt in a simplified Baroque style. It now houses the Hungarian National Gallery, the Budapest Historical Museum, and the National Széchényi Library, and it forms part of the Budapest area designated a UNESCO World Heritage Site in 1987.
