Hortobagy

Hortobágy is best known within Hungary for the UNESCO-listed cultural landscape of Hortobágy National Park. Set on the Great Hungarian Plain, the settlement stands beside the Hortobágy River amid the open grasslands known as the puszta. Hungary’s first national park, established in 1973, protects steppe habitats, wetlands and the traditional pastoral setting associated with grey cattle, racka sheep and csikós horsemen. The Nine-Hole Bridge, built between 1827 and 1833 across the river, is the area’s defining historic structure.
