This mini size build presents the Széchenyi Chain Bridge, which is a suspension bridge that spans the River Danube between Buda and Pest, the western and eastern sides of Budapest, the capital of Hungary.

Designed by the English engineer William Tierney Clark, (construction supervised locally by Scottish engineer Adam Clark) it was the first permanent bridge across the Danube in Budapest, and was opened in 1849. It is also the oldest permanent bridge on the Danube.
