A grand art nouveau building formerly belonging to Lajos Ernst, collector and patron of the Hungarian art scene, now houses the Robert Capa Centre – Contemporary Photography Centre. The house, located in central Budapest, was mostly intended for Lajos Ernst’s extensive collection, but it also houses a large cinema. The space continues fulfilling its cultural mission, providing a home, since 2013, to the aforementioned organization, an institute for visual art and photography.
