Overview
- Independent MP Ákos Hadházy entered the Hatvanpuszta property without permission and posted video on Facebook that drew more than 700,000 views by Wednesday.
- The clips show manicured gardens, a swimming pool, and expansive dining and living areas, which Hadházy described as a “luxurious palace complex.”
- Viktor Orbán rejects claims he owns or uses the estate, and his 84-year-old father, Győző, says he bought it in 2011 to recreate a 19th‑century farm.
- Separate aerial footage shared on X was viewed about 1.4 million times, adding attention to the estate near Felcsút.
- The dispute reinforces corruption concerns that underpin the European Union’s freeze of roughly €19 billion in funding to Hungary.
