Dániel Berzsenyi Secondary School (Hungarian: Berzsenyi Dániel Gimnázium) is a secondary school in Vizafogó, Budapest, Hungary. Founded as the German-style "Kaiserlich-Königliches Gymnasium in Pesth" in 1858, the school was renamed in 1920 for Hungarian poet Dániel Berzsenyi (1776–1836). It moved to its present building in 1986, from a previous location in the downtown of the city.
Notable alumni include Mihály Károlyi, former prime minister and president of Hungary, poets Miklós Radnóti and Frigyes Karinthy, Hungarian-American businessman György Soros, and Olympic champion swimmer Alfréd Hajós.
