Among the settlements of Hungary’s Great Plain and North region, Gibárt stands out for its long-running hydroelectric use of the Hernád River. The village lies in Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén County on the Hernád, which flows south from Slovakia before joining the Sajó in northeastern Hungary. Gibárt’s small hydropower station, built in 1903, is a notable technical landmark and recalls the early use of river energy in rural Hungary. Its character is shaped more by the watercourse and surrounding farmland than by urban monuments.
