Kazincbarcika

Kazincbarcika lies beside the Sajó River in northeastern Hungary, where the broad river valley meets the wooded uplands of the country’s north. The city grew rapidly during the post-war industrialisation of the region and received town status in 1954. Its identity remains closely tied to BorsodChem, one of Hungary’s principal chemical producers, while the Kolorcity programme has brought bold murals and public colour to apartment blocks and shared spaces. Kazincbarcika reveals an industrial side of Borsod-Abaúj-Zemplén County beyond its better-known wine districts and mountain resorts.
