Bagolyvári multi-storey carpark
Bagolyvári multi-storey carpark is in the centre of Veszprém and is easy to reach via Bagolyvári Road. It has capacity for 190 vehicles. It operates with a barrier and ticket machine system.
On arrival, press the button on the ticket issuing machine and you will receive a ticket with a barcode. This ticket shows the name of the carpark, a serial number, date and time.

From 16:00, the entrances and exits to the carpark are closed with a security grill. After this time, you can only access the carpark with your ticket, so keep it with you while your vehicle is parked in the carpark.

Hold the barcode on the ticket in front of the barcode scanner on the machine, which will display your parking time and the due amount. If you are paying with coins, you can use 10, 20, 50, 100 or 200 Hungarian forint coins.
When leaving the car park, insert your ticket into the slot of the automatic barcode reader. If payment has been made, the barrier will open automatically.
