Urban Exploration: Found Abandoned Cinema With Amazing Architecture In Hungary (English and German subtitles are available!) Episode #129

In a town somewhere in Hungary with historical and cultural value we discovered one of the most beautiful ballrooms of the whole country. As one of the few cinemas in the region, this used to be the center of attraction for art lovers and the youth. The last screening, however, was already ten years ago and since then the stately theater has been rotting away at a rapid pace. Lately, it has become an insider’s tip of the local urbex community. We were one of the first international photographers when we explored this place. It’s hard to believe that such an architecturally impressive structure lies forgotten within the city center. As the last visitors of the theater we’re trying to bring history to life and show you the beauty of decay.

    We postpone our next episode by at least one week! There’s simply so much going on in our lives at the moment. Of course we’re still exploring but editing takes plenty of time. Thanks for your patience. BWT returns soon!

      Hey guys, you need to release another video soon! i know editing takes time, and researching. i love your videos so much. they are done in such a professional way. you guys even get it down to the english subtitles. us non native speaking Germans appreciate it! you guys never make yourself sound stupid, you never guess at what a room is, or an item like another group on you tube… you always reserve what you think till your pretty sure, or even have to research it. seriously, professional videos, information is awesome, and the subtitles. you guys deserve so much more subs!!!

      @Broken Window Theory, Heya guys! ^_^ I was wondering where this “breathtaking architecture video” was! Its no rush, was simply looking forward to it. I like the dog @2:33 ^_^ The foyer is quite nice, elaborate railings. The ceiling @6:00, I like the interesting layout but 45 light bulbs is quite a lot. Thx for the pic @8:03, it looks nice there but I’m not crazy about the color they used. I ♥ the overarching ceiling, a lot of the white crisscross elements look like lace. I would like to see different color patterns but I’m thinking a marble of the main walls/ceiling and arches, maybe with some other colors for contrast/highlights and with maybe gold/bronze decorative elements.

      The photos are nice but I like 8:28 and then 8:44 has some elements of interest. Mhm, I’ll say 14:09 is more like the color scheme I’d like to see for the main theater! Wow Tobi’s photo is so bright at 14:14 but the color/tone they used still doesn’t click with me. 14:18 is such a crisp image! Idk if I’m enjoying Tobi’s photo skills as much or more than the subject he is photographing! ^_^ That AB&B looks a bit crazy… I’m ok with the Whirlpool-style tub but not the hole in the floor and then an electrical wire sticking out at you where you wash your hands! x_x I’m looking forward to your next video, take care. ^_^

    Just some constructive criticism, don’t be afraid to show bits of the “boring” areas.
    Although it might be boring, it’s still part of the story and history that this building has and paints a better picture.
    I think this was an amazing location!

    This is in my town. Our city tried to fight for this place, because it is one of our iconi cal buildings. This is truly breathtaking after the all the years. I’m glad you were able to show it, my memories faded through the years. Thank you!

    I love your work. Wish I could’ve done what you do but wasn’t possible in my time. So I go the vicarious route. I would like so much to see side by side comparisons of the structures. The photos available on file with the exact spot as now. To me that is the icing on the cake so to say. Thank you for the history. It puts you above the rest?

    You guys always find the most amazing places! This place is sad in it’s current state. But will you go back to see how it has been renovated? It’s wonderful that graffiti isn’t covering the walls. Great video as always guys! Stay safe and God Bless from Nevada, USA. I’ll wait as long as it takes for your next video!

    I can wait at least a week for the next episode ! I know it will be worth waiting for. This episode was totally amazing: architecture, colors, the theater and the strip club! I especially loved all the medallions in the theater and the light bulbs that looked like pearls in the main hall! I hope Hungary can bring it back. It’s too precious to lose. Thank you all!

    I hope to see it fixed up and restored to its formee glory. Back in my home town we loved our historical buildings. Only two that survived from the original founding of the town. A church and what was a small hotel, but now a harware store. All over the county tjere are historical buildings that all scream wild west. In the main city there is an old theater, while not as grand as this one, it some how mangaed to survive the test of time. When Main Street USA was invited in tje theater was updated into an Imax theater and another smaller theater was added next door. The theater has more of a 50’s style architecture feel about it. Inside is a modern fully updated single screen theater. The Maine theater shows all the latest block busters, like the Avengers while the secondary theater plays the other movies that are out or have been out. Maybe a similar fate is in store for this theater. Well what ever happens here I hope to see this theater restored to its former glory or better.

    I can’t remember looking forward to a video on YouTube like I was counting the days until yours. Ever. I was not disappointed. It saddens me that such a jewel of architecture and history is being allowed to simply crumble away. The artistry and craftsmanship especially in those ceilings are amazing! You really did find a treasure.
    By the way, the aeriel drone pic from the last location you showed us a few days ago was AMAZING! BEAUTIFUL shot! Loved it. Keep up the good work!

    This building was so beautiful. I’m glad that you said there are plans to hopefully save it. It was funny when you filmed the French brothers leaving and the people watching them climb over the fence ?
