A few photos I took in the enchanting Honvéd utca 3 showcase an Art Nouveau gem designed by Emil Vidor for Béla Bedő in 1903. Béla, a wealthy factory owner, resided there until his passing in 1916. Following his death, his son Rudolf inherited 50% of the property. In addition to his success in business, Rudolf Bedő was a passionate art collector. His collection included a painting by Giuseppe Crespi, now part of the Museum of Fine Arts. Rudolf also owned pieces from well-known Hungarian artists such as Tivadar Csontváry Kosztka, Róbert Berény, and Lajos Tihanyi. According to old phone books, Rudolf Bedő and his family lived in this house at least until 1950.

Emil Vidor also designed Honvéd utca 18, the house where Edward Teller, the renowned physicist, grew up.
