Oroszlany

Tucked into the eastern foothills of the Vértes Mountains, Oroszlány is a town whose character is shaped by wooded uplands and a coal-mining legacy. The surrounding Vértes is a low mountain range of forests and limestone terrain, giving the area a distinctly inland, rural setting. Oroszlány expanded considerably through 20th-century coal extraction and energy production, a story explored at the Oroszlány Mining Museum through equipment and reconstructed workings. At the town’s edge, the 18th-century Majk Camaldolese Hermitage preserves the separate cells built for monks as well as its baroque church.
