Hello Catarina,
the Fisherman’s Bastion is open all year around, 24/7.
There are no days when it would be closed down.

Thank you Claudia. Indeed Budapest is less touristy in winter time, as winter are quite cold in Europe. Agree, the Fisherman’s Bastion is perhaps the most romantic view towers I have been to. Thanks for visiting.
