Hello and welcome to this 4K tour of the Bory Castle, one of the main and top attractions not only in Székesfehérvár but also in the whole of Hungary.
The story of the castle started in 1912 when Jenő Bory bought the one acre land in Maria Valley near Székesfehérvár. It only had a little wine cellar and they spent their summer holidays there. He decided to build the castle after the project of the Church of Francis Ferdinand and the Sophia Home in Sarajevo failed due to World War I. He considered the castle his own work of art, a statue, rather than just a building. It had no plans, he just extended it year by year. This oversized home with its numerous decorations is a special example of Hungarian symbolic architecture. Even its layout is emblematical as its two centres, the Chapel and the Studio Gallery, symbolize two cardinal elements of Jenő Bory’s life. Several hundred statues which were made with the most diverse techniques can be seen in the castle. Paintings cover the walls, there are mosaics inside and outside of the building, glass paintings and fountains appear in the most unpredictable places. Enjoy the video!
