A
Ferenc Liszt Music Academy
A block southeast of Oktogon, what’s usually just called the ‘music academy’ was built in 1907. It attracts students from all over the world and is one of the top venues for concerts. The interior, with large and small concert halls richly embellished with Zsolnay porcelain and frescoes, is worth a look even if you’re not attending a performance.
