The Hall of Art or Palace of Art (Műcsarnok in Hungarian) is an art museum in Budapest, located in Heroes' Square, facing the Museum of Fine Arts.

It was built in 1895, by the plans of Albert Schickedanz and Fülöp Herzog, in eclectic-neoclassical style. As the greatest exhibition hall in Hungary, it exhibits representative works of art of Hungarian as well as other artists and it regularly organizes themed exhibitions (like that of Dalí in the picture).
