The buttress of the Western Gardens at the astonishing Buda Castle has been renewed and is shining in its original beauty. Check out the details and some photos in our article below.
According to the Facebook page of the National Hauszmann Programme, the Palota Street connecting the Dózsa György Square and the Buda Castle was created following the plans of Miklós Ybl in the 1880s. The aim was to substitute the steep road from the Tabán.
The serpentine crawling to Castle Hill with sharp bends is supported by several buttresses to stabilise its weight.
According to their Facebook post, the renovation project contains the renewal of the Western Gardens beneath the Palace of Archduke Joseph. Based on the plans, the garden will be open to the public. Furthermore, they will create a third underground garage, expanding the number of available parking places in the district.
They have finished the structural construction of Palota Street’s Eastern buttress, which received a new surface of Süttő limestone. Moreover, they placed the cast iron handrail resembling the style of the Ybl handrail of Palota Street.
As a result, the buttresses and the handrails are shining in their original, 19th-century beauty.
