Gyongyos

The landscape around Gyöngyös is defined by the wooded foothills of the Mátra Mountains, which have shaped both the town’s form and its long-established wine-growing economy. North of town, Kékes rises to 1,014 metres as Hungary’s highest peak, while the lower slopes belong to the Mátra wine region. Gyöngyös has long been a market centre for this mountain-fringe area. Its centre is marked by the Church of St Bartholomew, a major historic landmark, and the Mátra Museum adds a natural-history focus to the town’s cultural life.
