Terror Haza, or House of Terror in English, is one of the best museums in Budapest. Detailing the painful histories of Communist and Fascist regimes in Hungary, the museum is home to powerful exhibits and memorials. House of Terror tickets allow visitors to experience the building's chillingly reconstructed cellars, where ordinary Hungarians who opposed the status quo were tortured and murdered. It's an unflinching look at the country's political atrocities, but also a reminder that Hungary's freedom fighters didn't die in vain.
