The work of sculptor Károly Antal was erected in 1937. The statue depicts Friar Julian and Gerard who, on the orders of King Andrew II of Hungary, they set out to search for the remaining of the Hungarians in the Ancient Homeland. A typical example of the style of the Római School and one of the outstanding works of the genre is the 2 m high bronze memorial. It was placed on the ruins of medieval Dominican church.

Vörös Sün-ház
This is the oldest still standing building in Budapest. It was built around 1260 and was merged from several early Gothic, medieval dwellings in the 18th century to construct the current Baroque building. It functioned as the first tavern of the Buda Castle. Also, the first theatre performance of Buda was held here. In front of the building is a statue of Pope Innocent XI made by József Damkó in 1936.
Sárkányölő Szent György-szobor
Bronze copy of the statue of Saint George and the Dragon from 1313 that can be found in the Prague Castle, that original statue was made by medieval Hungarian masters (the Kolozsvari Brothers).
Halászbástya
One of the best known monuments in Budapest. This is the large white tower and lookout terrace complex. It is one of the most important tourist attractions due to the unique panorama of Budapest from the Neo-Romanesque lookout terraces. It’s named after both the medieval fishmarket once nearby and the Guild of Fishermen who defended this section of the wall during past wars. The story is that different trades were responsible for defending different parts of the castle walls and that this section of the defenses was raised by the fishermen’s guild. In fact, the structure is a late 19th century fantasy built to add class to the area. That this is an invention does not detract at all from the attractiveness of the structure, nor from the impressive views of the river and Pest on the opposite side.
Koller Galéria
The oldest private gallery in Hungary (founded in 1953). On the top floor of the three-storey atelier-house the memorial room for the Hungarian artist Amerigo Tot can be found. From the beginning, the gallery represented contemporary artists, especially engravers and graphical artists.
Hunyadi János-szobor
István Tóth was commissioned to make the statue in 1899, which was ceremoniously inaugurated in 1903. The Neo-Gothic limestone foundation was built according to Frigyes Schulek's plans. The foundation is closed by leaf-shaped ledges, the facade features the coat of arms of Hunyadi, and the other sides have a marble decoration. The Hero in armor, with a raven-helmet on his head, resting on a pall, heavily on his pallet, with the flags and other military badges of the defeated Turks at his feet, symbolizing his victory.
Volt Pénzügyminisztérium
It was built in 1904 according to the plans of Sándor Fellner in neo-Gothic style.
