Tahy-kastély in Galgagyörk, Hungary, is a historic manor that organisers can book for company training days, conferences, weddings, balls and family celebrations. Four connecting rooms with a combined 260 square meters hold up to 120 guests indoors. A large garden with an outdoor stage adds space for open-air events. The manor stands about 55 km from Budapest, in the Galga valley.
Seminars and company events
The official site presents the manor for further training and for conferences. It describes a calm setting that is easy to reach, which suits study days, professional meetings and workshops away from the city. The four rooms open into one another, so a group can work in one large space and split into smaller areas when the program requires it. The Great Salon has a stage, which helps for presentations, talks and small performances.
For a company, the garden and its outdoor stage give a second setting for a reception or a break between sessions. The site does not state the meeting equipment, the catering or the overnight options, so organisers should ask for these details in their request. The wedding page adds one useful point: no other event takes place at the castle at the same time as yours.
Weddings and receptions
The site describes a setting close to nature, with enough dance floor for the whole evening. Civil ceremonies can take place in the castle courtyard or in the Gosztonyi Garden, a park with ancient trees five minutes away on foot, with a village-style procession between the two. For a religious ceremony, three places of worship are available in Galgagyörk: a Catholic chapel next to the manor, an Evangelical church a five-minute walk away and a Baptist prayer house.
Photo locations are within walking distance or a short drive of one or two minutes: the Gosztonyi Garden, village streets, wooded paths, hills and lookouts. The manor lists balls, New Year's Eve parties and family events such as birthdays, christenings and graduations as well.
Rooms and capacities
Indoors, the manor offers four rooms on 260 square meters: the Great Salon (Nagy szalon), which has a stage, the Blue Salon (Kék szalon), the Reception Room (Fogadószoba) and the Pipe Room (Pipaszoba). The rooms connect, and together they accommodate up to 120 guests. The site does not give a capacity for each room, so organisers should state the layout they need, such as banquet or theater seating, in the request.
Outside, the grounds include a courtyard, a large garden and an outdoor stage, which make open-air events possible.
History and setting
The manor was built in the late 1600s. The Tahy family, whose head served as deputy lord of Nógrád County, played a large part in local and county life, and county assemblies were held here. A Catholic chapel was added in the 1700s, and the family extended the building toward the rear in 1815.
In the twentieth century the Sturmann family, related by marriage, converted the carriage entrance into a large salon decorated with frescoes. During World War II the building served as a military hospital. After the war it was nationalized and the historic park was divided into plots. Today the manor stands in a park with ancient trees, close to Budapest but away from the noise of the city.
Getting there
Galgagyörk is about 55 km from Budapest and 15 minutes from the Bag motorway exit. The address is Rákóczi út 12. The site does not describe public transport or parking, so groups arriving by coach or on foot from a station should check access with the manor.
