Szechenyi Thermal Bath Entry Ticket Overview
Built in 1913 and designed by architect Gy?z? Czigler, Széchenyi is one of Europe's largest and oldest thermal bath complexes, set inside Budapest's City Park (Városliget). The water is supplied through an artesian system drawing from two sources over 1,000 metres below the surface, with temperatures reaching around 76°C. The mineral-rich water contains calcium, sulphate, and metaboric acid, and is known for therapeutic benefits for joint diseases and chronic arthritis. The complex's grand neo-Baroque architecture, with its striking yellow facade, makes the outdoor pools as photogenic as they are relaxing — welcoming over 1.7 million visitors a year.
