Groupama Arena
Ferencváros has played on this patch of Budapest since 1911 — the old ground was torn down in 2013 and rebuilt from scratch, rotated a full 90 degrees.

Home of Ferencvárosi TC, this 22,000-seat bowl briefly held the title of Hungary's largest stadium between 2017 and 2019. Its corporate sponsorship name is contractually stripped from all signage the moment a UEFA or FIFA match kicks off here.
What to look for
- The pitch sits 10 cm below surrounding ground level — part of the original design brief for the new structure.
- The entire bowl is oriented differently from its predecessor, shifted toward Gyáli út as part of the rebuild plan.
- The on-site club museum, included in the original design brief alongside the restaurant and shop.
Located in Ferencváros district beside Gyáli út; check the Ferencvárosi TC fixture calendar before visiting — the stadium is purpose-built for match days.

More to see in Budapest
- Hungarian Parliament BuildingA political manifesto in stone: Hungary's parliament was built to look like Westminster, on purpose, with 40 kg of gold inside.
- Buda CastleA palace first raised in 1265, severely damaged in the Siege of Budapest during World War II, and rebuilt by a communist government — the scars and the seams are the story.
- Széchenyi Chain BridgeThe bridge that stitched Buda and Pest into one city — designed in Britain, shipped in sections, and opened in 1849 as one of the world's longest spans.
- Heroes' SquareAt the far end of Andrássy Avenue, a monument built in 1896 fixes the Magyar conquest of 896 AD in stone — seven founding chieftains, national leaders, and the plaza where Hungary reburied Imre Nagy in 1989.
- AquincumMarcus Aurelius is believed to have written parts of the Meditations here — on the Roman empire's frontier, not in Rome.
- St. Stephen's BasilicaThe first King of Hungary's mummified right hand sits in a reliquary here — and the dome above you had to be torn down and rebuilt from nothing after it collapsed in 1858.
