The Budapest Metro
Hungary’s capital boasts the first underground metro system on the European continent. It is also the second oldest electrified underground railway system in the world, only the City&South London Railway (now part of the London Underground) of 1980 is older than the Hungarian underground. Line 1 (also known as ‘Földalatti’ or the Millennium Underground) was built in 1896 and added to Budapest’s UNESCO World Heritage entry in 2002. Old stations have been beautifully restored and some of the modern stations on the other lines are also worth a look.
The first line was constructed to carry passengers from the city centre to the City Park (Városliget). The project was approved in 1870 and the construction began in 1894. It was carried out by the German firm Siemens&Halske AG, employing 2000 workers, using state-of-the-art machinery. The project was completed on schedule and the line was inaugurated on 2 may, 1896 by Emperor Franz Joseph.
The original line connected Vörösmarty tér with the City Park along Andrássy Avenue, covering a distance of 3.7 kilometres. Trains ran every two minutes, and there were eleven stations. The system could carry up to 35.000 passengers a day.
