Public laundry. Not too often to see it in Budapest anymore though in the 60s it was quite common here too. Its not a self-service system there is a staff that handle your cloths and other materials. People usually bring there suits or special clothes.

This is the facade of Kogart in Budapest, a villa with interior spaces by Ignác Alpar and architect István Pucher. The building was built by Ferenc József Landauer burgess of Pest as a summer residence at the end of the 1800s. Nowadays it aims to encourage broader participation in social causes by the private sector and to establish a new model for art patronage, especially for fine arts and promoting talented young artists.
