The well-known history of Budapest dates back to the ancient Roman city of Aquincum, founded in 89 on the site of an ancient Celtic camp, close to what is now Obuda. 106 until the end of the fourth Century, was the capital of the province of Pannonia.

Hungary was founded a year later in the year 1000, with the coronation of its first King Stephen I (Szent István), son of Prince Géza and great-grandson of Árpád. The city was almost destroyed by the Mongols in 1241 and the royal residence was moved to Visegrád in 1308. Buddha (pest) became the Hungarian royal seat of the country in 1408.
