Bodrog

It is evident that the Bodrog has always shaped the lives of those living along its banks. Fearing floods, the former centre of Bodrogkeresztúr was located well above the river level, and the main road we see today only began to be built in the 19th century. At the same time, the river provided the mist necessary for the development of aszú grapes in autumn and supplied part of the food needed for survival throughout the year.

Bréda Castle of Vásárhely

The building stood abandoned for many years. After its renovation, it now operates as a cultural visitor centre and a tourist attraction. Every evening, after sunset, a unique light art display is showcased on the façade of the castle, which is set in a stunning environment. Events and weddings held in the surrounding historic park can become elegant and unforgettable memories, earning it the prestigious award of Best Wedding Venue in Békés County in 2016.

Church of Our Lady of Fatima

The current church was built to replace the modest prayer house that previously stood here. The construction of the church was initiated by the late mayor Géza Germán. The project was supported by the Diocese of Szeged-Csanád and Bishop László Kiss-Rigó. Local residents also contributed to the construction: the Viszokai family donated a 280-kilogram bell, Corvus-Kora Róbert provided two large paintings and a five-metre granite cross. The foundation stone was laid on 13 October 2007. Construction work began in August 2008 and was completed by the end of May 2009. The church was consecrated on 22 August 2009. On the day of the consecration, several hundred people gathered, with at least half unable to fit inside the church, so they listened to the mass from outside via loudspeakers. Justification for inclusion in the heritage register: The church plays a significant role in the lives of Lőkösháza's residents. It is an important place for Catholic believers. This is where they baptise their children, where they receive their First Communion, where they are confirmed, where they marry, and where they offer masses for their deceased loved ones. The church is a home for everyone and a place of gathering every Sunday. Without a church, it is difficult to foster a Christian community life. It can be visited by prior telephone arrangement.

City Hall

The City Hall in Miskolc is a central complex of buildings located at the end of the main pedestrian street, comprising four sections.

Corvus-Kora Róbert

Corvus-Kora Róbert has lived and worked in Lőkösháza since his childhood. His first major success came at the age of 16 in Budapest, where one of his paintings was awarded a certificate. He was greatly influenced by Renaissance art and 17th-century Dutch artists, aspiring to paint in their style. He has created several public sculptures and monuments from marble and limestone. Always passionate about monumental, life-sized depictions, he decided to paint his first 9x4.5-metre panoramic painting for the Hungarian Millennium in 1996. A total of nine panoramic paintings have been completed. His future plan is to create another 9x4.5-metre painting and build a circular hall to house the artworks. The building will be unique in the world, as no such circular hall exists that contains ten panoramic paintings, each exploring a different theme. The artist regularly supports Lőkösháza. His works adorn the public spaces and interiors of the village, such as the St. Stephen statue, the cross in front of the church, the Trianon memorial, and the monument commemorating the 1956 Revolution and War of Independence. He has also erected statues in memory of Jenő Gávai Gaál and Tibor Frigyes Májer. The columbarium wall and the crucifix in the local cemetery are also his contributions. His paintings decorate the Community Centre and the Mayor's Office. His ninth panoramic painting can be viewed at the Petőfi Sándor Community Centre in Lőkösháza by prior arrangement. Appointments can be made with the artist for guided tours.

Dobozi Reformed Church

Located in the centre of Doboz village, in the middle of Kossuth Square, stands the Reformed Church, rich in historical and symbolic value: it was built between 1794 and 1798 during the ministry of Sámuel Kállai M. The church is a single-nave structure with a tower at the front façade, ending in a semicircular closure. The tower's shaft is topped by a clock cornice – complete with a clock. The tower spire bears the year 1867, commemorating its renovation, and is crowned with a decorative finial featuring a globe, star, and flag. The interior furnishings are in a classicising style with Rococo influences. The floor is covered with wide wooden planks. The organ, built in 1912, is also under heritage protection. The unique oak furnishings add a cosy atmosphere to the church interior. Inside the church, there is a distinctive marble baptismal font. The church was damaged during the 1978 earthquake, and its restoration took six years. The building was reinforced with a concealed reinforced concrete structure that even caught UNESCO's attention. In addition to worship services, the Dobozi Reformed Congregation occasionally organises cultural events within the church walls, enriching the cultural life of this ancient settlement.

Dobozi Wenckheim Castle

The former Wenckheim Castle now functions as the Dobozi Primary School. In 1944, the castle, which originally had 52 rooms, reached its current form in three stages. First, the hunting lodge facing the main road was completed (currently a shop is located here). The single-storey hunting lodge was built by Rudolf Wenckheim based on the plans of Antal Czigler, the estate architect from Gyula, providing a place for relaxation and hospitality after hunts. In 1850, the upper floor of the castle and its extension parallel to the main road were completed, which now form part of the Dobozi Primary School building. The building took on its "U" shape at this time, and around the same period, in 1852, the romantic-style racing stables and coach house were built based on the plans of Miklós Ybl, followed by the triumphal-arched oat silo granary. Doboz became the centre of the estate, from where the Vésztő and Csorvás properties were managed. At the beginning of the 1900s, Dénes Wenckheim constructed the turret-like, mansard-roofed, slate-covered multi-storey section in the courtyard in a historicist style. A marble staircase leads to the upper floor. From the balcony room, there was a beautiful view of the castle park. The rooms featured stunning tiled stoves matching the wall colours. In the dining room, a 4-metre-tall snow-white tiled stove was brought from Belgium. The upper floor served as the living quarters for the countess and the children. The castle was furnished in an aristocratic and sophisticated manner. On the ground floor, the large dining room, among other things, served as the venue for hunting dinners, and many famous people visited the castle during hunts, including Governor Miklós Horthy. By the 1940s, Count Lajos Wenckheim transformed the castle into a true countryside residence. The corridors' walls were adorned with a collection of hundreds of beautiful and valuable roe deer and stag antlers. The Dobozi hunting lodge was well-known in aristocratic circles. Today, the impressive building houses 9 classrooms. In 1996, the building was expanded with a new wing, which included additional classrooms. The old and new building complex now welcomes Dobozi students with a modern computer room, development room, and specialised classrooms equipped with interactive whiteboards.

Exaltation of the Holy Cross Catholic Church and Crypt

Behind the former castle, surrounded by a branch of the Dead Black Körös River, lies a 3.7-hectare castle park, designed by the Wenckheim family in the 1880s. At the highest point of the park stands the neo-Romanesque-style Holy Cross Chapel and Crypt, often referred to as the 'jewel box' of the area. In 1902, Count Dénes built the neo-Romanesque patronal church and the round cemetery chapel, the crypt, based on plans by Viktor Siedek, a Viennese architect. The chapel cost 250,000 crowns. The foundation of the church was dug out in just one week in 1857 by local labourers from Doboz. The buildings were consecrated on 7 June 1902 by Bishop Lőrinc Schlauch of Várad. According to contemporary accounts, at the Gerla bridge, a hundred horsemen welcomed the bishop performing the consecration, escorting him to the church entrance. For the celebratory lunch following the consecration, 800 meal tickets were distributed among the construction workers. The interior is richly decorated, with every column and staircase in the church made of marble. The colourful windows, the three altarpieces, and the ceiling paintings, featuring mosaics covered with 24-carat gold leaf, were created by Tyrolean artists. The church and its associated family crypt can be visited by prior arrangement.

Former Synagogue

According to the census of 1723-24, there were already 7 Jewish families living in Bodrogkeresztúr, and their number increased steadily during the 18th century. The strengthening of the community and the religious life is shown by the fact that the first rabbi of the Jewish community of Pest, Israel Wahrmann, was the rabbi of Bodrogkeresztúr prior to 1765, and there are records from the same year that the Bodrogkeresztúr fair was visited by Jewish merchants from Pest county. A few decades later, in 1786, 256 Jewish inhabitants were recorded in the settlement, in 65 households.

The strengthening of the community and religious life is evidenced by the fact that the first rabbi of the Pest Israelite community, Israel Wahrmann, served as a rabbi in Bodrogkeresztúr before 1765. Records from the same year also show that Jewish merchants from Pest County visited the market in Keresztúr. A few decades later, in 1786, the settlement had 256 Jewish residents across 65 households.

Former Széchenyi-Wolkenstein Mansion

Granary Designed by Miklós Ybl

The Granary is a historic building constructed in 1863. It is an outstanding industrial and architectural monument of the village, built based on the designs of Miklós Ybl for the former Wenckheim estate. This granary is a true forerunner of modern architectural endeavours. The building has a T-shaped floor plan, is three storeys high, and features a closed block structure with simple recessed Gothic-style windows. Between the windows are vertical pilasters running upwards, with a cornice above the second floor. The openings on the third floor crown the building like pearls, which is topped with a low gable roof. The block is connected to the adjacent drying tower by a single arched opening up to the second floor. This served as a covered passageway for transport carts. The larger rectangular section was suitable for grain storage on three levels and functioned as the granary. Perpendicular to this wing is the silo section, which is also three storeys high. It features a semicircular vault in the middle, and on the right side was the drying silo. In 1985, the roof, which had been severely damaged by a storm, was restored, but no further work was carried out. Until 1944, the granary was used by the estate and later by the Agricultural Cooperative, followed by the Békés County Grain Trading and Milling Company. In 1962, the Petőfi Agricultural Cooperative of Doboz purchased the building. The cooperative's management, recognising the rapid deterioration of the structure, planned its renovation but was unable to secure the necessary funds. Despite its significantly deteriorated condition today, the granary is still considered an agricultural heritage site. It is currently in private ownership.

Jenő Gávai Gaál Promenade

Born in Pusztagerendás on 14 September 1846, he was a descendant of an old noble family. He was a polymath and politician with landholdings in Lőkösháza, as well as an economist, doctor of law and political science, ministerial counsellor, and university professor. He was fluent in six languages at a native level. The name of Jenő Gávai Gaál plays an important role in the life of several settlements in Békés County, including Lőkösháza. Thanks to him, Elek, Lőkösháza, Geszt, Ártánd, and Biharkeresztes were not ceded to Romania in 1922 following the acceptance of the Treaty of Trianon, which concluded the First World War. In 2024, a statue was erected in his honour in Lőkösháza, and the public space where the monument stands was named Jenő Gávai Gaál Promenade.

József Kotroczó's Diorama Collection

József Kotroczó, the creator of Hungary's smallest 'Golgotha' works, was born on 17th April 1926. According to the Ethnographic Lexicon (pages 383-384), in the 17th-18th centuries, these works held such value that they became part of heritage collections. His 'Patience Bottles' are wooden carvings built inside bottles ranging from 0.5 to 1000 ml: cross, ladder, pillar of torture, whip, spear, sword, hammer, sponge. Creating these pieces pushes the boundaries of human endurance and the impossible. The original colour of the wooden carvings is white (Canadian poplar), symbolising the purity of the soul, while the cork represents eternity. The exhibition can be viewed at the Sándor Petőfi Community Centre.

Keresztúri Treasury

The settlement was inhabited even in prehistoric times. This is evidenced by the discovery of two sensational collections of artefacts. In the spring of 1918, workers found gold ornaments at the foot of Dereszla Hill, which archaeologists later determined to date back to around 1200 BC.

Kondorosi Inn

The Kondorosi Inn is the most iconic building in Kondoros, located in the heart of the town. According to some sources, the original inn was demolished in the early 1820s and replaced with a massive brick fortress, which featured mysterious hiding places, tunnels, and labyrinths within its walls. It is said that the famous outlaw Sándor Rózsa himself escaped his pursuers through the tunnel system beneath the inn. The "old inn," believed to have been lost due to walling up in the 1910s, regained its former shape by 1985. Since 2002, the Kondorosi Inn has been owned by the town. Thanks to a successful grant, it was renovated and now operates not only as a restaurant renowned far and wide for its excellent cuisine but also as an inn museum. The collection housed here offers insight into the lives of the once-famous outlaws and, thanks to the diligent collecting efforts of locals, includes countless old household items that were still common in every home just a few decades ago but are now rarely seen. Thanks to the latest developments, the local history collection has been further expanded, and the inn museum has become interactive. Sándor Rózsa can be brought to life not only through his wax figure, wanted poster, or signature but also virtually, as visitors can take his place among the outlaws and shoot at stagecoaches from horseback. With the help of the "escape museum," visitors can not only observe but actively participate in re-enacted historical events and traditional programmes, such as dressing in outlaw attire or trying their hand at cracking a bullwhip.

Over the years, they have also explored the embroidery traditions of nine regions within the Carpathian Basin. They participated in the Carpathian Basin Folk Textile Festival, held in Békéscsaba, where they achieved 2nd place. In recognition of their work, the local council included the group in the local heritage register. They have taken part in numerous local, county, and national exhibitions, often receiving awards. At two exhibitions, they also achieved 2nd place, which is a great source of pride for the community. The group's embroidery works can be viewed by appointment.

Lőkösháza Bread

Made using an ancient Hungarian recipe passed down through generations. It contains no preservatives, yet thanks to the sourdough technique, it stays fresh for days and doesn’t crumble. Its pleasant flavour pairs well with most foods. The carefully balanced mix of high-quality flour has beneficial effects on health and is easy to digest. Its crumb is substantial, not airy, making it filling even in small amounts. The crust is crispy and glossy due to the exceptional qualities of the traditional brick oven. Each loaf is handmade, so experienced eyes can tell which baker crafted which bread.

Lőkösháza Doughnut

In our village, the baking of the Lőkösháza doughnut was initiated by the Pensioners' Clubs in 1985, and they have been continuously carrying out this activity ever since. They have participated multiple times in the Kisiratos Village Day as well as county events. They prepare doughnuts for institutions such as nurseries, schools, events, other requests, and every year for the Lőkösháza Village Day, which has now become a tradition. On these occasions, they make 3,000-4,000 doughnuts. The Lőkösháza Doughnut was also showcased at the Békés County Nationalities Day in 2018, where it was a huge success. In 2019, the Local Value Registry Committee of Lőkösháza Municipality declared the Lőkösháza doughnut, made by members of the Railway and Village Pensioners' Club, a local value. The opportunity to taste this gastronomic treasure is only available by prior arrangement.

Philip the stork - stork nests

A few years ago, the main street of the village had many overhead cables, which posed a constant threat to birds in the area. The proximity of the Bodrog river makes Bodrogkeresztúr a popular habitat for storks. However, the death of Fülöp the stork, who had lived in the village for 12 years, in 2018, has also highlighted the problem of overhead cables.

Philip, the Stork - Stork Nests

A few years ago, the main street of the town was still marred by overhead cables, which posed a constant threat to the region’s birds. Due to its proximity to the Bodrog, Bodrogkeresztúr is a popular habitat for storks. However, the death of Philip, who had lived in the town for 12 years, in 2018, highlighted the issue of overhead cables even more prominently.

In the years following his death, hundreds of pilgrims visited Bodrogkeresztúr on the anniversary of his passing — and today, pilgrims come not only on the anniversary but throughout the year.

Rákóczi House

The single-block building, with its four living rooms, primarily served as a residence for the family during harvest time. The Baroque house was built in the 17th century, but it underwent some modifications a century later, and it can still be admired in this form today. The house is notable for being the oldest non-religious building in the settlement, and a Latin inscription can still be read on its wall: "Peace be within your walls, tranquillity within your palaces."

Reformed Church

The church, built in the late 18th century in a neoclassical style, was initially constructed without a tower, as Protestants were prohibited from building church towers during this period. The tower's construction only began in 1803 under the guidance of Ferencz Ignác, a master builder from Tokaj. At that time, the current Upper Street was still the main street of the settlement, and according to Joseph II's decree, Protestants were only allowed to build the church with its back to the main street, 30 metres further down.

Samson's Castle

The Árpád-era earthwork known as Samson's Castle appears on András Paulovics's 1789 map, with no earlier references in historical sources. According to a local legend, the castle's name is linked to a robber leader named Samson. During the Turkish era, this was the hideout of a robber leader named Samson, who caused significant damage to the Turks and killed many of them. He had a deep cellar underground where he stored his treasures. However, the only way to access this underground cellar was through the hollow trunk of a stunted willow tree growing on the banks of the Körös River. In 1964, Júlia Kovalovszki, an archaeologist originally from Doboz, determined the extent of the castle during her excavations. Samson's Castle consists of two parts: an inner and an outer castle. In one of her excavation trenches, Júlia Kovalovszki uncovered the remains of a gate tower, which provided passage through the rampart made of compacted earth. In 2006, an authentication archaeological excavation was carried out at the site of the gate tower under the leadership of archaeologists Dr. Mária Béres and András Liska. As a result of the excavation, previously unknown details of the gate tower documented by Júlia Kovalovszki were discovered, and data was collected about the structure of the rampart. The local population of nearby villages, particularly in the early Árpád era, may have used Samson's Castle, built in a protected nook of the Körös River, as an occasional refuge.

Flower Exhibition by Mrs Károly Kovács Made of Sugar

Mrs Károly Kovács was born in 1957 in Lőkösháza, where she has lived ever since. Following in her father’s footsteps, she also became a tailor and seamstress, working in Lőkösháza. She initially created sugar flowers and decorated cakes as a hobby for her family and friends. Through this, her work came to the attention of our town’s mayor, Györgyi Szűcsné Gergely. She encouraged her to participate in the amateur cake-making competition organised by the Mihály Munkácsy Museum in Békéscsaba in 2015, where she received a special award for her cake composition titled “My Grandchild’s Tale.” Later, she completed a sugar flower-making course, where she met Master Confectioner Dr Zoltán, a member of the Békés County Culinary Team. Dr Zoltán noticed her work and, in 2016, invited her to create floral decorations for their table at the Culinary Olympics in Erfurt. Since 2016, she has been making the village day cake for Lőkösháza every year. Her exhibition can be viewed at the Sándor Petőfi Community Centre in Lőkösháza.

Shepherd's Cornmeal (known as 'mămăligă' in Romanian)

The traditional national dish of the Romanian community in Lőkösháza, with a history spanning over centuries. Its preparation is extremely simple: cornmeal/flour is cooked in milk or salted water. Depending on the amount of milk or water, the polenta can have a thin, semi-firm, or firm consistency. It can be served as a side dish, flavoured with sheep's cheese, sour cream, dill, and sprinkled with crispy bacon pieces. The Romanians of Lőkösháza also enjoy it alongside stuffed cabbage, with warm milk, or as a dessert sweetened with honey, sugar, cinnamon, or even jam. The Romanian Association of Lőkösháza showcases the traditional recipe at Romanian remembrance evenings, organised annually since 2021, as well as at local or larger gastronomic events involving Romanian ethnic groups. Shepherd's polenta is highly popular not only among the older generation but also among younger people. Justification for inclusion in the value repository: At local and larger community events, such as county-level Romanian gastronomic festivals, the dish is associated with the Romanian community of Lőkösháza and the Romanian Association of Lőkösháza. The opportunity to taste this gastronomic treasure is only available by prior arrangement. Appointments can be made via the following phone number: weekdays between 08:00 and 15:00.

Statue of Ferenc Rákóczi II

In 1648, Ferdinand III gifted Bodrogkeresztúr to György Rákóczi. Half a century later, in 1699, Ferenc Rákóczi II and Julianna Rákóczi agreed on the division of the estates, as a result of which Julianna Rákóczi became the owner of the settlement's lands. The Rákóczi War of Independence also shaped the fate of the entire Tokaj-Hegyalja region – this is one of the reasons why the life-sized bronze bust of Rákóczi, cast by sculptor Géza Balogh based on a painting by Ádám Mányoki, can be admired in the centre of the settlement.

Statue of the Shepherd Playing the Flute

In the centre of the settlement, visitors are welcomed by a charming little park. At its heart stands the public statue of the 'Shepherd Playing the Flute', erected in the year 2000 by the Municipality of Doboz to honour the Millennium. This statue, made of bronze and limestone in a traditional architectural style, was the largest creation to date by sculptor Attila Mészáros. The design was inspired by the connection between Doboz and water, which has shaped the lives of its inhabitants and the history of the settlement. In the past, Doboz was almost encircled by the Black Körös River, giving it an island-like appearance. This is symbolised by the pebble-shaped base made of Süttő limestone. The shepherd playing the flute evokes the settlement's pastoral heritage.

Tamás Széchy Memorial House, Local History Collection and Creative House

Our town's prominent cultural and heritage site is the Tamás Széchy Memorial House, Local History Collection and Creative House. This house preserves the memory of Tamás Széchy, one of Hungary's most successful swimming coaches of all time and the first honorary citizen of Doboz. He spent his childhood in this house, where his mother was the post office manager. Until 2008, this building served as a post office. Later, thanks to a grant, it was renovated and slightly modified, eventually gaining its current appearance. In 2012, it was reopened to the public, housing a permanent exhibition of the swimming legend's personal belongings and providing space for the local history collection, which includes items donated by residents as well as the handiwork of members of the Dobozi Folk Art Association. Its latest addition, the Postal History Exhibition, opened in 2024. This house hosts all kinds of craft workshops, camps, and events that ensure the traditions of the past are not forgotten and are faithfully passed on to future generations. The main goal is to preserve and respect local traditions and values, passing them down "from father to son." A living house and event space with its own herbal garden. The memorial house can be visited by prior arrangement.

The Acetania Vinegar Museum

The word vinegar does not always conjure up images of premium gastronomic value. It more reminds us of the cleaning techniques of our grandmothers, or the taste of bean soup with vinegar added.

The Bodrog river

It is obvious that the Bodrog river always had special significance in the lives of the people who live along its banks. Fearing flooding, the former centre of Bodrogkeresztúr was built well above the river level, and the present main road was only built in the 19th century. At the same time, in the autumn season the river provided the moisture needed to create aszú in the wine making process and supplied part of the food needed for subsistence throughout the year.

The Calvinist Church

The Louis seize style church was built in the late 18th century. At that time, the present Felső street was the main street of the village, and according to Joseph II's decrees, Protestants were only allowed to build the church 30 metres further down the street, with its back to the main street. History has served justice to the Reformed community in such a way that the lower street, closer to the river Bodrog, became the main route for the wine merchants, and eventually the lower street, going by the river, took over the role of the main street.

The former Széchenyi-Wolkenstein Castle

Oszvald Wolkeinstein, a descendant of Julianna Rákóczi, built the mansion at the foot of the Dereszla hill in the last quarter of the 19th century.

The Griffin Well

Since 2010, the artwork of Sándor Gyula Makoldi, a resident of Bodrogkeresztúr and creator of several public square sculptures, provided water to tired hikers in the heart of the village. An important motif of the Hungarian Conquest chieftain graves found in the Bodrogköz region is the griffin bird, a mythical creature known from the White Horse’s son tale, a powerful and fearsome force that can lift you to heights you cannot otherwise reach. That's why the statue is designed in a way so that people can sit on its back while it gives thirsty people the gift of life-giving water from its own body.

The Rabbinic House

The rabbi died in April 1925, and on the day of his funeral 12,000 train tickets were sold at the Bodrogkeresztúr train station. On the anniversary of his death, hundreds of pilgrims came to Bodrogkeresztúr in the following years - and today pilgrims come not only on the anniversary, but at any time of the year.

The Rákóczi House

The building block with 4 living rooms, served as a residence for the Rákóczi family mainly during the grape harvests. The Baroque house was built in the 17th century but was somewhat rebuilt a century later and can still be viewed in this form. The house is the oldest non-church building in the village and still bears a Latin inscription on its walls: "Peace be within your fortress walls, and quietness in your palaces”.

The statue of the Hungarian prince Ferenc Rákóczi II.

In 1648 Ferdinand III donated Bodrogkeresztúr to György Rákóczi. Half a century later, in 1699, Ferenc Rákóczi II and Julianna Rákóczi agreed on the allocation of the estates, as part of which Julianna Rákóczi became the owner of the properties in the village. At the same time, the Rákóczi War of Independence determined the fate of the whole Tokaj-Hegyalja region - thanks to this, a life-size bust of Rákóczi, cast in bronze by sculptor Géza Balogh based on a painting by Ádám Mányoki is now featured in the centre of the village.

The Treasure Trove of Bodrogkeresztúr

Keresztúr was inhabited already in prehistoric times. This is evidenced by the discovery of the two great artefact assemblages discovered.

The viewpoint

If you walk up to the viewpoint above the village, you can not only enjoy the spectacular view, but also get a sense of the mystical nature that the people of the area attributed to their natural environment for centuries. The local tales – told by the admiring and humble people - present a world where people do not dominate nature, but submit to its laws, and in return, nature gives them all the good things they can imagine.

Town Hall

The current town hall building once belonged to the Hohenlohe princes and was purchased by the settlement's leadership in 1929 from the Kláber company. Part of the purchase price for the building was covered by the sale of the former town hall, which was then handed over to the post office.

Wenckheim Castle Park

Behind the former castle, surrounded by a branch of the Dead Black Körös, lies a 3.7-hectare castle park, designed in the 1880s by the Wenckheim family in an English style. Its characteristic trees include pedunculate oaks, plane trees, lindens, horse chestnuts, ginkgo, and clusters of Scots pine. Since 1979, the park has been a protected natural area, and the leadership of Doboz considers its rehabilitation a top priority. In the park, you can see stunning trees that are over several hundred years old. Within the picturesque English park, you’ll also find the family mausoleum and chapel (1896-1902). The park was rehabilitated in 2006, aiming to restore its former state by planting new vegetation, creating flowerbeds, and replacing dead trees. This well-maintained and visually striking park is a favourite spot in the town, where both the young and old enjoy strolling beneath trees that have witnessed centuries of history and spending their leisure time. We warmly invite our guests to this marvellous natural setting, whose unique climate is shaped by the Dead Black Körös. Four bridges lead into the park, making this natural wonder in the heart of the town more accessible. In the western part of the park, there is a sculpture garden honouring the memory of former Hungarian kings. As you walk around the park and let your imagination wander, you can picture the everyday life of the former Wenckheim estate, as the former castle, the granary designed by Miklós Ybl, and the chapel and crypt at the park’s highest point are all within “arm’s reach” of each other. If you visit Doboz, don’t miss this experience!

World War I Memorial

World War I Memorial

At 9 pm on 31 July 1914, the village was shaken by terrible news. Like a foreboding trumpet, the sound of the drum spread under the cover of night, and the village crier of the time, Károly Rozgonyi, shouted hoarsely through the streets: “War has broken out!”.
