National Museum - Budapest - Hungary
The Hungaryan National Museum is the most significant, and one of the oldest collection of Hungary. As the first museum of Hungary, it was founded by a highly educated peer, count Ferenc Sz?chenyi, in 1802, who offered his manuscript, map, numismatic and print collection to form a core material for a national museum to be built. The bill passed in 1808 which ordered the construction of the Hungarian National Museum (and library) which was designed and built by Mihßly Pollßck, one of Hungary's most well-known architects of his time, between 1837-1847. The monumental building of neoclassical design was opened in 1847, as the fourth largest museum in Europe.

Parliament - Ottawa
THE PARLIAMENT. The Parliament Buildings dominate the city from Parliament Hill. The three celebrated Gothic buildings with green copper roofs were originally built 1859-66. The Center Block was destroyed by fire in1916, but was later reconstructed according to the original design, minus the wood-paneled interior. The only section of the Center Block left undamaged after the fire was the library.
