===Hungary=== [[File:Hungary-02370 - Changing the Guard (32572978096).jpg|thumb|Changing of the guard at the [[Hungarian Parliament Building]].]] The Honour Guard of the [[Hungarian Defence Forces]], the [[32nd Budapest Guard and Ceremonial Regiment]] has provided sentries for the [[Sándor Palace, Budapest|Sándor Palace]] in [[Budapest]] since the disestablishment of the [[Hungarian People's Republic]] in 1989. This is done at the gates of the palace, due to its status as the [[official residence]] of the [[President of Hungary]].<ref>{{Cite web|url=https://wheretostayinbudapest.com/changing-guard-sandor-palace-budapest/|title = Sandor Palace and the Changing of the Guard in Budapest - Where to Stay in Budapest}}</ref> The ceremony was initiated in 2003 when President [[Ferenc Mádl]] moved into the palace. The sentries come at noon in a team of six, although only two of them will actually take up the guard. A drummer and officer are also present.<ref>{{Cite web|url=http://budacastlebudapest.com/changing-of-the-guards-at-the-buda-castle/|title = Changing of the Guards in the Buda Castle|date = 12 May 2012}}</ref> Another guard changing ceremony is held inside the Domed Hall of the [[Hungarian Parliament Building]] on [[Kossuth Square]], where guards protect the [[Holy Crown of Hungary]]. At both ceremonies, an [[exhibition drill]] is performed during the mounting of the guard at noon, with the latter having musical accompaniment. Public duties by the regiment are also provided by a four-man team at the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier at the Millennium Monument on [[Hősök tere]] (Heroes Square). The 7015th Ceremonial Regiment of the [[Hungarian People's Army]] also conduct public duties at the tomb.
