About Hungarian House of New York

The Hungarian House was the brainchild of Hungarian immigrants living in New York City in the early 1960s who considered it important that one of the world’s largest metropolises have a community establishment, a stronghold where the Hungarian-American diaspora can experience and maintain its Hungarian identity and cultivate Hungarian culture and language, and also create a bridge between Hungarian, Hungarian-American, and American societies by presenting Hungarian culture, art, and science.

The primary goal of the Hungarian House is to be a community establishment, a stronghold where the Hungarian-American diaspora can experience and maintain its Hungarian identity and cultivate Hungarian culture and language, but also to create a bridge between Hungarian, Hungarian-American, and American societies.

The Hungarian House is owned by three non- profit organizations: the American Hungarian Library and Historical Society, the Hungarian Scout Association in Exteris, and the Széchenyi István Society, and is managed by the American Foundation for Hungarian Literature and Education, Ltd.
