After long preparations, AIC launched its programme of visits to the Library of the Hungarian Parliament in mid-February 2023.

Both sites offer a great chance to understand the way Hungarians thought and behaved, partly by providing a historical overview, and partly showing the opportunities of future use of museums and winter-summer [...]

Avicenna high school students from grade 10 visited the Metropolitan Ervin Szabó Library this week. It has been not only a long-cherished goal of the Literature teachers but all of the others to show our teenage students sophisticated learning facilities in the heart of Budapest within an outstanding building, which used to be a Palace (Wenckheim Palace) owned by an aristocrat family in the XIX. century. The library itself started to operate in 1904. The richly ornamented iron gates from the street made us anticipate the magnificent interior of the mainly baroque building. Having loaded the lockers with [...]

Due to this fact, our students found this experience, not just unique and fascinating, but also something [...]
