Palace of Music


The Palace of Music is a building in Bartók square, Miskolc, Hungary. It is in the Béla Bartók Secondary School and the Béla Bartók Music Institute Designed by Gyula Waelder in Neo-baroque style, it was constructed between 1926 and 1927. USA loans -- just like that of the Hotel Palace in Lillafüred and the Market Hall on Búza tér -- financed the project. The Palace plays an important role in the cultural life of the city. It has a large concert hall where concerts are regularly held.
The music institute -- originally named after the violinist Jenő Hubay -- moved into the building in 1927, on the 25th anniversary of its founding.
