Szekesfehervar

Set between the Bakony Hills and the Velence Hills of central Transdanubia, Székesfehérvár is a city whose character has been shaped by the flat, historically marshy plain around it. Long before Budapest became the national capital, it was the Hungarian kingdom’s principal royal centre: medieval rulers were crowned and buried here. The Ruins Garden preserves remnants of the Basilica of the Assumption, founded by King Stephen I and once the country’s coronation church. Baroque streets in the old town lead to squares, churches and civic buildings, while Bory Castle reflects the personal vision of sculptor Jenő Bory.
