The Hungarian pavilion houses Hungary's national representation during the Venice Biennale arts festivals.

The Venice Biennale is an international art biennial exhibition held in Venice, Italy. Often described as "the Olympics of the art world", participation in the Biennale is a prestigious event for contemporary artists. The festival has become a constellation of shows: a central exhibition curated by that year's artistic director, national pavilions hosted by individual nations, and independent exhibitions throughout Venice. The Biennale parent organization also hosts regular festivals in other arts: architecture, dance, film, music, and theater.^[1]

Outside of the central, international exhibition, individual nations produce their own shows, known as pavilions, as their national representation. Nations that own their pavilion buildings, such as the 30 housed on the Giardini, are responsible for their own upkeep and construction costs as well. Nations without dedicated buildings create pavilions in venues throughout the city.^[1]

Hungary has been a participant of the Venice Biennial right from its beginnings in 1895. After the Italian and the Belgian, the Hungarian national pavilion was the third to be built at the Giardini. Designed by Géza Rintel Maróti [hu], 1909 (restored by Ágost Benkhard [hu], 1958, and György Csete [hu] 1998–2000). The Ludwig Museum – Museum of Contemporary Art took over the Venice selection process from 2015.

The Hungarian pavilion was designed in 1906 by artist-architect Géza Rintel Maróti and built through 1909. The building is influenced by Hungarian architecture and art traditions. It was twice restored: in 1958 by Ágost Benkhard, who added a courtyard and a flat roof, and in 1991–2000 by Gyorgy Csete. Only the entrance and some decoration are retained from Maróti's original building.^[2] The Ludwig Museum – Museum of Contemporary Art took over the Venice selection process from 2015.
