The Museum of Fine Arts in Budapest stands on Heroes' Square, facing the Hall of Art. Albert Schickedanz and Fülöp Herzog designed it, and the article names no client. The text says it was built between 1900 and 1906, and the infobox gives only 1906 as the year established. The article describes the style as eclectic neoclassical and gives no materials or dimensions.

It is an art museum with over 100,000 pieces, and László Baán has directed it since 2004. The museum celebrated its centenary in 2006, and the article records several later plans affecting its future.

A 2008 proposal would have merged it with the Hungarian National Gallery. An extension request was denied in February 2011, and plans for a new structure on Andrássy út were announced in September 2011. The article gives no hours or ticket details.
