The House of Terror is set on Pest's graceful Andrássy utca. It was the headquarters of Hungary's ultra-right Arrow Cross Party, and later the Communist secret police. The interrogation rooms and cells remain as a tribute to victims of these regimes.
During the Second World War, the building was the headquarters of the Arrow Cross Party, the Hungarian ultra-right. After the war, when Hungary was occupied by the Soviet Union, it was the base of the Communist political police.
br>The House of Terror museum opened in 2002 and is dedicated to the memory of all those imprisoned, tortured and killed within.
