(166886) Ybl is an asteroid of the main outer belt that was discovered on December 25, 2002 by the Hungarian amateur astronomer Krisztián Sárneczky at the Piszkéstető Observatory ( IAU code 561) in the northern Hungarian Mátra Mountains on behalf of the Budapest Konkoly Observatory .
The asteroid was named on February 9, 2009 after the architect Miklós Ybl (1814–1891), an important representative of European historicism . The YB from the provisional name of the asteroid, 2002 YB 3 , was an obvious choice for this name. His most famous work, the Hungarian State Opera , but also the St. Stephen's Basilica , the customs house and a wing of the Castle Palace , all buildings in Budapest, were particularly emphasized in the dedication .
