Parliament of Hungary

The remarkable Hungarian House of Parliament is one of Europe’s oldest legislative buildings, being over a hundred years old. It is well known both in Europe and worldwide for a blending of architectural styles: Neo-Gothic and Baroque with Byzantine and renaissance influences. The celebrated monument is located on the left bank of the Danube, where, in addition to hosting the Hungarian legislature, it also has one of Europe’s oldest crowns, the Holy Crown of Hungary from the Middle Ages, on display.

Pre-existing situation & UTCFS’s role

The Hungarian House of Parliament is not only important for its political scene; it is a historical site that offers home to the ancient royal crown of Hungary. Needless to say, this is one of the most important buildings in Hungary, and as such, it needs a tight security system. UTCFS understood this and offered the site a comprehensive solution.

UTCFS’s solution

UTCFS previously gained experience in the Hungarian political scene having provided a security solution for the Sándor Palace, the residence of the President of the Republic of Hungary. The best solution possible was put forward by offering an integrated security system able to provide access control, intrusion detection, fire detection and video surveillance. All of the system components can be easily operated from one single shared platform, with the help of an illustrative map. In addition to the reliability of the system, it offers virtually unlimited extension possibilities, which is an essential requirement for the security of one of the most prominent buildings in Hungary.
