From here, the easiest way to get to the city centre is by taking buses 1, 2, 4 and 10. It is worth getting off buses 1, 2 and 10 at the Theatre, while bus 4 is worth getting off at Megyeh\u00e1z Square. If you choose a car, we recommend using the free parking lot under the Castle, from where you can walk up to the Castle in a few minutes. The Castle area can only be entered with a permit, so please avoid this if possible.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Address:<\/strong><br \/>\n8200 Veszpr\u00e9m, V\u00e1r utca 21.<br \/>\nTel.: +36-88\/426-088<br \/>\nEmail: konyvtar@veszpremiersekseg.hu | leveltar@veszpremiersekseg.hu | info@vefleveltar.hu (for e-research)<\/p>\n<p><strong>Opening Hours:<\/strong><br \/>\nMonday\u2013Thursday: 8:30 am \u2013 3:30 pm<br \/>\nFriday: 8:30 am \u2013 12:00 pm<\/p>\n<p>Please book your research appointment in advance via our <a href=\"https:\/\/vefleveltar.hu\/foglalasok\">online booking page<\/a>, by phone (+36-88\/426-088) or by email (leveltar@veszpremiersekseg.hu).<\/p>\n<p><strong>Further Information<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><strong>Library<\/strong><br \/>\nAny Hungarian citizen or foreign researcher over the age of 18 may register free of charge.
