Built in 1838-49, this was the first permanent river crossing linking Buda and Pest. The idea was first developed by Count István Széchenyi, who commissioned the English architect William Tierney Clark to design it. The Scottish engineer Adam Clark was brought to Hungary to supervise the construction. It was one of the largest suspension bridges in the world at the time of its construction. It was destroyed in the Second World War in 1949 and reconstructed in 1949.
