Tisza Castle

Geszt, Hungary, Hungary

---

Tisza Castle in Geszt is a historic manor and castle closely associated with the influential Tisza family, one of Hungary’s most important political dynasties.

Its origins date to the 18th century, when the estate was developed by the Tisza family, and the building was gradually expanded into an elegant Baroque-style residence. The castle is particularly significant because it was home to two Hungarian prime ministers, Kálmán Tisza and his son István Tisza, both major figures in the country’s political history.

For many years, the castle served as a center of social, cultural, and political life in the region. After World War II, the building was used for various public purposes, including a school, cultural center, and library. In recent years, it underwent a major restoration project to preserve its historic architecture and heritage.
