Elizabeth Lookout
The Elizabeth Lookout (Hungarian: Erzsébet-kilátó) is a historic lookout tower on János-hegy above Budapest. Built in 1911, the tower was named after Empress Elisabeth, wife of Emperor Franz Joseph I. Frigyes Schulek was the architect. The tower is near Budapest’s District XII, and may be reached from the Széll Kálmán tér of Budapest.
