Lighting in Mansions

A glimpse into the pre-electricity world: how did the wealthy illuminate their homes? The cultural history of gas lighting is explored through the plans of Nádasdy Mansion.

From the 1860s onward, gas lighting was common in the communal and corridor spaces of castles, but why were candles still used in the bedrooms? This is revealed in the animated film, commissioned by the Nádasdy Mansion Museum and produced in both Hungarian and English, which introduces viewers to the history and operation of gas lighting.
