Armenians in Hungary ((ハンガリー語:Örmények)) are ethnic Armenians living in the modern Hungary. Estimates range from 3,500〔 to 30,000〔 (Généralités )〕 living in the nation today, making up roughly 0.01% of the population. Approximately, two thirds of Hungary's Armenians population is found in Budapest and the surrounding Pest county. Armenians in Hungary have established 31 "self-governments" and roughly half of them speak Armenian as their mother tongue.〔(EUROPA - Education and Training - Regional and minority languages - Euromosaïc study )〕 The Armenian Catholic Priesthood has existed in Hungary since 1924 and hosts a number of cultural programs, as does the Armenian Cultural and Information Centre in Budapest. The first Armenians to reach Hungary presumably came from the Balkans in the 10–11th century.〔Józsa Hévizi, Thomas J. DeKornfeld, Helen Hiltabidle, Helen Dilworth DeKornfeld, Autonomies in Hungary and Europe: a comparative study, Corvinus Society, 2005 ()〕 Most modern Armenians in Hungary have immigrated to the country after the dissolution of the USSR. Armenians were present from early on in Hungary (then Kingdom of Hungary), clearly attested in a document issued by Hungarian King Ladislaus IV the Cuman (late 13th century). Here, they were even allowed to found their own trading towns, the most notable one being Szamosújvár (today Gherla, Romania) called ''Armenopolis''/''Armenierstadt'' or ''Hayakaghak'' (Հայաքաղաք). ==Notable Hungarians of Armenian heritage== *General Ernő Kiss (1799–1849), one of the main figures of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848, and one of the 13 Martyrs of Arad *General Vilmos Lázár (1817–1849) another one of the main figures of the Hungarian Revolution of 1848, and also one of the 13 Martyrs of Arad *General János Czetz (1822–1904), a prominent Hungarian freedom fighter, chief-of-staff of Hungarian army *Gábor Agárdy (born ''Gábor Arklian'') notable actor, "actor of the nation" (the highest civil rank and honor, an actor can have in Hungary) *Erika Marozsán (1972) Hungarian actress.
