The culture role of Budapest (15th-16th c.)
The cultural role of Buda was particularly significant during reign of King
Matthias. The Italian Renaissance had a great influence upon the city. The
second Hungarian university was established in the city in 1395 (the first was
founded in Pécs in 1367): and the first book was printed in Buda in 1473 under
the title Budai krónika (The chronicle of Buda).
