We are not the same: we like different things, we eat different things. Since we recommend different places to eat out.

 

The newest gastronomic trends in Hévíz

Innovative design, modern gastronomic trends, monthly changing menu, creativity and sophistication. These are the main features of the Brix Bistro cuisine, where even traditional dishes are served in a new form.

Brix Bistro - Rákóczi Street

Bavarian atmosphere, tasty dishes, family restaurant with a puli dog. Are you looking for the best pork shank with cabbage or a real Kaiserschmarrn? Here, regulars have their own beer mug vault. Real Bavarian atmosphere, October festival in October, and the most festive place in town around Christmas. Bodry, the puli dog, welcomes you at the doorstep. Don’t be afraid, step over him.

Hofbräu Restaurant - Large Car Park

A confectionery that is much more than that. It is the REGULAR HAUNT

At first glance, it may look like a pastry shop because all you can see from the terrace are the many wonderful Italian pastries and cakes but if you look a little deeper you can also find Italian hams, cheeses, freshly baked bread, coffees with fine aroma and chilled wines. If you enjoy hanging around there, Macchiato will be your regular haunt.

Macchiato Cafe & Lounge - Széchenyi Street

+1 for HardCore Foodies: for those who do not shy away from eating something phenomenal in a special restaurant

Is there even a restaurant where the menu does not exist? Yes, there is. There is also a daily selection of the best types of meat. You might find buffalo, Mangalica pig, guinea fowl or rabbit on offer, but what exactly will be the side dish or sauce? ... it will be based on the effect of the vibrations created between the fanatic foodie/owner and you. But it will certainly affect you. Those who like it ... are very fond of it. Those who do not like it ... will even leave the place with a full stomach.

Öreg Harang Borozó - Egregy

 

Where the venison stew is served with potato dumplings topped with fried onion, the fish soup is made from carp and the cottage cheese noodles with pork scratchings.

Magyar Csárda

The Magyar Csárda opened its doors in 1985. They offer excellent Hungarian cuisine and live gipsy music in the evenings. The restaurant has a Hunting themed Hall, a Hungarian Hall, a Csárda Gallery and a pleasant garden. It's a real pleasure to sit on the shady, cosy terrace even in the hot season with a glass of wine. The restaurant has a wide range of dishes on the menu so everyone can find something nice, be it a real Hungarian or international dish.

Kocsi Csárda

The Kocsi Csárda was also opened in 1985 in Hévíz. The atmosphere of the place and its offer speaks for itself. In the evenings, you can enjoy the perfect Hungarian dishes, such as spit-roasted pork cutlets, stew or bean goulash while listening to live music. “A true tavern atmosphere, delicious dishes, huge portions, Hungarian flavours and fast, polite service’ wrote a guest in the guest book. / Kerék Csárda / Located at the foot of Egregyi Hill, the Kerék Csárda and Dombföldi Márton Cellar has become one of the most atmospheric wine taverns in the area since its opening in 1985. The elaborately designed vaulted cellar offers a unique venue for various events. The menu offers delicious dishes to please everyone. The lovely atmosphere is enhanced by musical programmes in the romantic, candlelit garden on pleasant summer evenings.

Korona Restaurant

The Korona Restaurant offers a selection of County Zala’s culinary delights. Thus, the menu includes a wide variety of interesting flavours, special dishes, delicious desserts and specialities never heard of in other parts of the country. The chef is happy to prepare seasonal and special dishes without neglecting traditional Hungarian and international flavours. They have not forgotten about light, vegetarian and children's dishes. The dishes are prepared using local fruit and vegetable ingredients, and they organize bimonthly wine dinners, themed Hungarian and barbecue dinners to entertain their guests. 

Teri Mama Vendéglője (Mama Teri’s Restaurant) 

In the neighbourhood of the Roman ruin garden and the "Fradi" Church, you can also enjoy delicious meals at Mama Teri's Restaurant. Although the dishes are no longer prepared by Mama Teri, the flavours are homemade. Family atmosphere, the ambience of a typical old peasant house with embroidered tablecloths, a large earthware oven and home-style flavours and dishes await you. 

Row of the small restaurants at the large car park 

Although not on a par with quality restaurant service, many people feel nostalgic about the row of small restaurants in the Large Car Park, where you can eat freshly baked roasts, poppy seed dumplings or fried dough with garlic, which is a must in the summer. And of course, the selection of dishes also includes tripe, bean soup with pork shank and pancakes with jam or curd as a dessert.

 

Fresh cheeses, smoked sausages, spices, vegetables and artisan products direct from the producer. Choose natural and healthy food.

In the spirit of the old days, the area behind the Large Car Park in Hévíz is full of stallkeepers on Tuesdays, Thursdays and Saturdays. Occasionally, visitors can meet honey producers, pickle and juice makers, cheese and vegetable sellers and enjoy authentic Transylvanian music. Fresh bread, sausages, homemade cakes and cow's milk can even be tried before buying. In addition to fine foods, craftsmen sell their wares, and you can buy earthenware pots, baskets or even handmade soaps on the spot.

The Hévíz Farmers’ Market offers quality and chemical-free products for the conscious consumer. And when you shop here, you do not only support local producers, but you also opt for a healthy lifestyle.

Hévíz Farmers’ Market has already been chosen by the 144 vendors and stallkeepers who offer their homemade and handicraft products to the guests from time to time.

tartalom: Wine tasting in Egregy and the tastes of Zala Returning home after a medical treatment, wellness or family holiday in Hévíz, you talk to your friends, family and acquaintances about the beauties of the town, the special healing effects of the thermal lake, the Dotto sightseeing train, and we would rightly say that visitors also recall the atmosphere of the wine cellars on Egregy hill and the abundant specialities of the restaurants. The beauties of Egregy wine hill, the hospitable wine cellars and the wines are as significant elements of Hévíz as the thermal lake itself. However, it is important to try a welcoming restaurant and taste its local specialities after a pleasant bath. The high number of restaurants and their diverse menus are able to satisfy all the needs of the visitors to the town. You can dine in a tavern, little or larger restaurant, or even participate in an open-air pig-roast. The delicious flavours of the Zala region may be enjoyed when accompanied by Gypsy music as well.  Furthermore, the lovers of the traditional combination of black pudding, sausage and mustard may also indulge in their passion as these specialities are offered in the catering units of the parking lot. After a delicious dinner, what can be more enjoyable than tasting some nice wine in pleasant company? Do not forget to ask your host for a glass of wine from the wine of the town of Hévíz and write us your opinion. You can buy the wine at the Tourinform Office (Rákóczi str. 2., Tel.: +36 83 540 131). Enjoy your meal and wine!

While cycling, you can get to know the towns and superb landscapes of the Balaton Highlands, the volcanic hills and the valleys hiding between the shore hills as well as the wildlife of the Kis-Balaton.

tartalom: + 1 Thermal water, not only externally Among the different therapy treatments offered in Hévíz, drinking cure received significantly less attention than its beneficial effects would deserve it. However, the official effects of the drinking therapy using the thermal water of Hévíz can be obviously experienced by those suffering from acute gastro-enteritis and digestive disorders.
  Of the use of the sulphuric water of Hévíz as a drinking cure Dr Noémi Gyarmati says: “It can be successfully used for enhancing intestinal activity and the generation of gastric acid, or in the case of acute bowel inflammation, constipation or haemorrhoid. It also reduces biliary disorders, and enhances the healing of upper respiratory tract infections. Thanks to its special content, it can be also used for relieving pain. Furthermore, not as part of a drinking cure, but for rinsing it can be successfully used for treating acute stomatitis.” Naturally, just like every other thermal water, there are contraindications for using the healing water of Hévíz: the consumption of the sulphuric water must be avoided in the case of acute hepatitis and cholangitis, or increased thyroid function. Drinking fountains for free use in the city: in the Rózsakert building (Rákóczi str 17-19.), from the Erzsébet királyé street  (Open: 8  am - 6 pm)

tartalom: + 1 The effectiveness of the Thermal lake of Hévíz is the combined effect of several healing factors: temperature of the water large amount and streaming gas-content hydrostatic pressure bathing in open air The most optimal is to bath when the water temperature is between 32-34 °C. This temperature is perceived by human skin as neither cold nor warm, blood vessels shall neither contract, nor expand by its effect, unlike in cold and warm water. This indifferent temperature of the medicinal lake of Hévíz allows that the bathers can stay there for longer periods, without losing or accumulating heat, and this was the chemical and biological traits of the water can exercise their effect for longer periods.
  The huge amount of water, always in movement, results in several types of water streams in the lake. The medicinal water bursting up from the source spreads in radial directions in the half-cone shape lake bed, and the water that is cooled down on the surface, descends under the fresher, warmer water vertically, in a cylinder type stream. The water always in movement and the mud particles always in movement exercise higher friction resistance, higher ascensional power of the water bursting up from the deep floating is made easier, so staying in the water requires less physical force than in the case of stagnant water. The gases present in the lake water – sulphur-hydrogen, carbonic acid - exercise a physical and chemical effect. The mechanical effect of the gas bulls getting attached to the skin has a favourable impact on the functioning of the whole nervous system.  By penetrating through the skin, the gases also have a direct chemical effect, on the other hand, gases that evaporate from the water by mixing with the air above the water, get into the body through inhalation, through the lungs.  Sulphur discharged from the water and from the puddled mud exercise intensive biological effect on various life-functions. The hydrostatic pressure resulting from the weight of the bathing water has a significance, as due to the water depth, people bathe in the lake in a vertical body position, so water exercises higher pressure on the deeply immersed feet, than on the thorax that is situated higher. This is good for blood circulation, as the pressure of the water presses the body fluids from varicose veins and lymphatic vessels of the lower limbs, pushes them into the blood circulation and into the heart.

tartalom: + 1 800-Year-Old Church The Egregy part of the town called Hévíz used to be a medieval village, which has been destroyed during the Turkish occupation and has been rebuilt by German settlers in the 17th century. The traditions of vine-growing are preserved by the local oenologists and inns. One of the pearls of the town, the ancient monument church built in the 13th century is located in the Egregy part of the town. The church is surrounded by a graveyard. From the top of the hills there is a wonderful view to see. The exact date of the construction of the church is unknown; presumably it was built in the middle of the 13th century. Written records mention it for the first time in 1341. The building was heavily damaged during the 16-17th century, in the baroque times it has been renovated in 1731. Luckily only the parts that absolutely needed action were involved in the renovation, therefore, the medieval form of the church remained. The results of this renovation included the internal and the external decorative paintings, heightening of the nef, and the missing arches have been replaced, too. The first patron of the church was St. Catherine of Alexandria. After the renovation the church has been consecrated again, and the new saint patron was St. Magdalena. Then the church has been subject to renovations repeatedly: in 1860, in 1912, between 1964 and 1965, in 1990, 1991 and in 2015. There is an opened baroque door on the southern side. The arching of the tower has been renewed in the 18th century, and the quadrangular nef adjoins it. The only decorative element adding space to the interior of the church is the row of chambers in the northern wall. It is important to pay attention to the paintings on the wall of the church. These are not of medieval origin, but are the clear evidence of the architectural enrichment of the church. It reflects the due respect of the folk art treasure forms. Inside the building there are the fragments of a baptising pool from the Roman age, and a consecrated cross from the medieval age. The church of Egregy is one of the three churches from the Arpadian age left entire in the area of Lake Balaton. The structure and the space of the orientated church are clear-cut, it has a straight sanctuary and a single nef. The tower has three floors of rich formation, with double and triple windows. The tower is covered by an octagonal helmet-shaped roof reinforced by eight quarter-timbers. The foundations preserved the forms used for building from wood. The painted decorations and the scratched forms remained on the external surfaces. Look around in our 3D tour! Holy Spirit Catholic Church The Holy Spirit Catholic Church is the largest church of Hévíz. Its seating capacity is about 1000. The foundation stone of the church was laid by Jozsef Szendi then bishop in May 1996.Its GPS co-ordinates are the following: N 46° 47' 21.85", E 17° 11' 06.04"The church was built based on the plans of Janos Bocskai architect. Due to the support of the town and the population it has been completed in three years. The seven sky-high towers serve as a guide for the visitors of the town. The seven towers are the symbols of the seven gifts of the Holy Spirit. On September 9th, 1999 it has been consecrated together with the Town Hall by Jozsef Szendi retired bishop. The interior of the church is alloying modern architecture and tradition enhanced mainly by the nice wooden panels. Its excellent acoustics makes it a suitable scene for giving organ concerts, too. The colourful windows with their Gothic-like forms are the hand-made products of Endre Simon artist from Heviz. The torso cross on the wall of the sanctuary is a 200 years old art treasure that has been granted to the church and has been restored by Gyula Karolyi restorer and painter. The bronze statue of Christ on the left side of the altar was created by Laszlo Marton. He is also the composer of the bronze statue called the Dowager of the Hungarians standing on the right side and wearing the Hungarian Crown. The lustre glaze pictures on the walls were made by Laszlo Morvay. The wooden structure was built by Tibor Kováts and the wooden works of the interior were produced by Andras Hegedus. There are four bells in the towers. In the garden of the church and in its neighbourhood there are several statues and reliefs. Due to static reasons there was no bell placed in the highest tower. In the tower on the left there are two bells ringing, one of those have been founded by Dr. Bela Horvath and his family to pay homage to Saint Peter, the another was moved here from the old church. One of the bells in the right tower have been founded to do homage to Saint Paul and the costs were covered by the widow of Imre Varga, its another bell is again from the old church. Look around in our 3D tour! Calvinist church The Calvinist church was constructed between 1995 and 1998 based on the 1941 plans of Balint Szeghalmy architect from Nagyvarad. The marble decorations of the building are evocating of the Hungarian Calvinist churches of Transylvania. When creating the interior the Calvinist traditions were followed and it has remarkable woodworks. The church is used both by the Calvinist and the Lutheran denominations for servicing and meetings. Indeed only the minority of the population of the town is Calvinist or evangelical, but every year there are thousands of visitors belonging to these churches arrive here from Hungary and from abroad. The Calvinist from Heviz used to have no church, their meetings were held in houses and in the Community Centre of the Spa-Hospital. The evangelists used the small room of the movie theatre, then the lobby of Hotel Alba and the Community Centre of the hospital. In 1994 the city council made a donation of this piece of land to the denominations. It was again the local government supporting the construction, then a funding was started in order to cover the remaining costs of the works started in 1995. The foundation stone of the Calvinist church was laid on June 21st, 1997. The finished church building was consecrated by Dr. Bela Harmati evangelist bishop and Dr. Mihaly Markus Calvinist bishop. Karoly Borsos and his family made the donation of the bell located under the opened arch of the tower to the church. Look around in our 3D tour! Heart of Jesus church The Heart of Jesus church is located in the Egregy part of the town. It consists of two parts constructed in different ages. Close to the church there are building ruins left from the Roman age, the excavation was brought to a close in 2004.Its GPS co-ordinates are the following: N 46° 48' 07.28" , E 17° 11' 20,94” The church was built based on the plans of Janos Bocskai architect. The belfry was built at the beginning of the 20th century, while the nef was completed in 1994-1995. The belfry built in 1905 had two floors, but in 1937 a third floor was added. The tower built in Roman style has twin windows and includes a small and a large bell. The small bell has been founded to do homage to Maria Magdalena in 1905. In 1937 the large bell was founded upon the order of Egregy village to do homage to those who died in the King’s service. To pay homage to those 16 people lost in World War I there is a table made of stone in the middle of the cope and the names are listed on this. In commemoration of them again there were 16 trees planted, together with grave-markers having each name, date of birth and birth of death carved into those. There are only 6 trees alive as of today. To pay homage also to those who died in World War II there was a memorial tablet placed into the wall of the belfry, including the names of the young people from Egregy who died. Later the tablet has been moved to the graveyard. In 1994 the construction of the church nef started in accordance with the plans of Janos Bocskai. Then it has been consecrated by Dr. Gaspar Ladocsi major-general, chaplain general to the forces on April 22nd, 1995. The church is also called Fradi church, due the significant support provided by Sport Club of Ferencvaros (Fradi) for the construction. The white and green colours of the interior and the small memorial corner reflect the ties with the club. Look around in our 3D tour!

Opening hours:Till 31 December:Tuesday: 7:00 - 13.00Thursday: 13:00 -19:00Saturday 7:00 -13:00 1 January - 26. March:Thursday: 12:00 -18:00Saturday 8:00 -13:00 Look around in our 3D tour! Pedestrian Zone The entire length of Rákóczi Street is a pedestrian zone. This street connects Széchenyi Street (which is the main street) with Dr. Schulhof Vilmos Promenade. The Tourinform Office is located at the beginning of Rákóczi Street. If you are coming from Széchenyi Street you will find the Office is on your right. The tourist information office is open all year round and offers programs in the area and tourist information for the visitors. The office also provides internet facilities and bicycle rental services. If you carry on down Rákóczi Street towards the thermal bath it is worth looking at the buildings hiding behind the trees among boutiques, cafeterias and ice cream parlours. The pedestrian zone is bordered by villas built in the 1920s, which are nowadays - after significant restoration works-  accommodate apartments and cafeterias. Fontana Motion Picture Theatre (Fontana Filmszínház) is located half way down Rákóczi Street and opposite the id. Dr. Moll Károly Square with a fountain and the full size bronze statue of Károly Moll. Károly Moll is the „father” of weight bath, which he developed in Hévíz in the 1950s. The building of the Indoor bath is situated at the end of the street. The Therapeutic Centre (Terápiás Centrum) was handed over in 1968, which is nick-named by the locals as the winter bath. It was reconstructed in 2004 and there are plans to extend and further develop the building in the near future. We can view the Pantheon on the external wall of the building, and in the foyer the Jupiter stone is exhibited, which proves that people were living in this area already 2000 years ago. Look around in our 3D tour! Building of the City-hall The new building of the city-hall is located at the Kossuth Lajos street, it was constructed between 1998 and 1999 on the place of the former town-house. It was inaugurated on September 9th, 1999. The building is one of the important eyemarks of Heviz; it was built in 1950, and in 1997 the renovation was started behind the former town-hall. On January 31st, 1998 Bertalan Farkas, the first astronaut of Hungary and the mayor laid the foundation stone. The plans were prepared by Laszlo Benczur and Peter Takacs, under the co-ordination of Peter Reinholz Kossuth Prize-winning architect. The Building-trade Company of Zala county was implementing it. The useful floor-space of the building is 3367 m2. The office of the local government is located in the building, its employees receive the clients every working day. The southern side wing includes a conference and theatre hall for 200 persons, this facility serves not only the meetings of the city, but all other scientific and cultural events. Look around in our 3D tour! Art Cinema The official name of Hévíz Art Cinema is Fontana Filmszínház (Fontana Motion Picture Theatre). The Motion Picture Theatre has a projection room for 130 people, which was renovated in 2015. Recently new digital technology equipment has been installed ensuring up-to-date video and sound quality. Cafeterias The buildings located next to the main car park in Széchenyi Street are called „the row of cafeterias”.If you approach Hévíz from the direction of Lake Balaton, turn right at the first crossing to Széchenyi Street, and after passing the forest belt you can already see the cafeterias. If you fancy a tasty “lángos” (fried dough) or a grilled sausage, here you can find what you are looking for from the wide choice of delicacies offered by the best buffets. If you prefer a traditional dinner or lunch, don’t hesitate to treat yourself in one of the many restaurants of town. You can purchase Hévíz gifts and the must have swimming aid during your holiday at the gift shops located in between the cafeterias. Life music and entertainment programmes are also offered to the tourists in the evenings. Look around in our 3D tour! Egregy Wine Cellars The Egregy part of Hévíz town is famous for its gastronomic delicacies. From downtown you can access the wine cellars in 25 minutes on foot. On your way you will pass Jesus’ Heart Church (Jézus szíve templom) at the end of Zrínyi Street or you can visit the Roman excavation site at the end of Attila Street. In the evenings the wine cellars and restaurants built in between the rows of vines are magnets for the guests of the town. This is a great place for the guests - exhausted after bathing – to charge up with a nice dinner or enjoy a wine tasting event while listening to live music. Restaurants offer not only traditional Hungarian specialties, but also international dishes on their open air terraces or in the cosy wine cellars. If you carry on down Dombföldi Street among the wine cellars, you can reach the Arpadian Age Church, which is one the most beautiful built cultural heritage of Hévíz. Look around in our 3D tour! Cherubs The main entrance of the lake is guarded by two cherubs, which were made on behalf of the Festetics family at the turn of the 19th and 20th century and they are very similar to the Zsolnay family’s cherubs in Pécs. The dragon made of a lion and an eagle can also be found on Hévíz’s official coat of arms. The cherubs served the gods in the mythology of the ancient Semite folks. They stood in front of the gates and kept away the demons. Their images were engraved in the stones of kings’ palace gates or church gates, most likely that is why the Festetics family had them made as well.  According to the legend, if someone walks through between two cherubs without love in the heart, the cherubs start speaking. According to another storyteller not the cherubs but the copper rooster placed on one of the towers of the baths starts speaking, if someone leaves the town without love. But there has never been a precedent for this.    There are several artworks in the public places of the town; you can see a statue or sculpture nearly in every street, most of them were created by the famous sculptor, László Marton. In the park of the Lake Spa, known as Hévíz Statue Park, there is a group of statues including the busts of three outstanding figures of Hungarian literature: bust of Zsigmond Móricz (created by László Kutas), Mihály Csokonai Vitéz ( by József Rátonyi) and Dániel Berzsenyi (by Tibor Riger). You can see 13 memorial tablets placed on the wall of the Winter Spa to commemorate the most famous visitors of the Spa.

tartalom: + 1
Lake Hévíz is the world’s largest biologically-active natural thermal lake, which is able to refresh body and soul alike. The source of the 4.4 ha water surface lake, rich in sulphur, and minerals can be found 38 metres deep in the cave, which due to its high well capacity completely changes in every 72 hours. The water of Lake Hévíz contains an equal proportion of dissolved and gaseous substances, thus unifying the favourable characteristics of thermal waters rich in carbonic acid, sulphur, calcium, magnesium, hydrogen carbonate. Lake Echo of New Zealand is larger and its water is warmer, but it cannot be compared to the particularities of the Hungarian lake as it is not suitable for bathing and cannot be used for medical purposes. The history of Hévíz Lake The origins of Lake Hévíz go back to the ancient times when Lake Balaton and the basalt mountains around the lake were formulated. At the end of the Pannon-era volcanoes disrupted the layout of the Trans-Danube region. The healing power of the water was already known to our ancestors. The first signs of post-volcanic activity were the spring of heat sources, as was the eruption of “Ancient Hévíz”. Archaeological excavations prove that this area was inhabited even at the end of the Stone Age. The art relic church on Egregy hill was built during the reign of the Árpád-dynasty, which uniquely preserved the reminiscence of the era. Legends are connected with miracles; nevertheless, Hévíz is a miracle in itself. According to an ancient legend on the origin and healing effect of the lake, the Holy Virgin wrung a spring by the appealing prayer of a Christian nurse. The nurse wanted to heal an invalid child. The hot water of the lake breaking out from the depth and the steaming mud completely cured the weak child. The legend stems from the Roman age and the mentioned child was definitely the East Roman emperor, Flavius Theodosius, who declared Christianity the official religion in his own empire in 391. The spring has been feeding the world-wide unique Lake of Hévíz ever since. According to another legend once upon a time the commander of Csobánc castle fell in love with the daughter of Tátika castle’s castellan. The commander had often seen the girl leaning on her elbow at the towers of the castle. The two castellans were enemies. The commander of Csobánc castle went to fight for the girl. It was only revealed that the girl was lame in both feet when he won the fight. As an old woman suggested, after the wedding they built a house for themselves on the shores of Hévíz Lake so that the young lady could often dip her legs into the warm water. A few weeks later the lame feet were healed and the lovers lived happily ever after. It happened even earlier than our great-great-grandfathers’ times that a shepherd grazed his stock in the surrounding hills and herded them beside the moor to drink. Suddenly he saw that one of his footsore cow kept disappearing in the shrubbery and just stood there. As he went closer he felt that the water was much warmer there. After that he came to bath his sore feet in the steaming water several times. Not even a lunistice passed and the miracle happened: his foot pain completely disappeared. This took wind in the estate and the shrewd landowner enclosed the warm water. This is how the thermal lake came into being for the happiness of many sick people. Did you heard about the legendary cherubs? The main entrance of the lake is guarded by two cherubs, which were made on behalf of the Festetics family at the turn of the 19th and 20th century and they are very similar to the Zsolnay family’s cherubs in Pécs. The dragon made of a lion and an eagle can also be found on Hévíz’s official coat of arms. The cherubs served the gods in the mythology of the ancient Semite folks. They stood in front of the gates and kept away the demons. Their images were engraved in the stones of kings’ palace gates or church gates, most likely that is why the Festetics family had them made as well.According to the legend, if someone walks through between two cherubs without love in the heart, the cherubs start speaking. According to another storyteller not the cherubs but the copper rooster placed on one of the towers of the baths starts speaking, if someone leaves the town without love. But there has never been a precedent for this.    Did you know, that the water temperature may reach 23-25 °C in winter and 33-36 °C in summer? The water of the lake is in a constant move. On the one hand, it is moving from left to the right, and on the other hand, warm water moves upwards while cold water goes downwards. This two-way flow keeps the water of the lake in a constant move, thus leaving a special massaging effect on the human skin. in winter it provides a spectacular and unique experience when the condensed steam forms a steam cap on the top of the lake surface? This “cap” prevents water from cooling down, and at the same time a natural inhalatorium is formed. Hydrogen sulphide is released into the air, which have medical effects on the exhausted vocal cords when inhaled. according to the memoires from the Roman era, the oldest and most famous thermal bath in Hungary can take pride in a history of over 2,000 years? Lake Hévíz, together with the volcanic hills of the Tapolca basin and those of the Tihany peninsula were included in the recommendation list of the World Heritage National Hungarian Committee in January 2003?

tartalom: + 1 Hévíz Information No doubt you are planning your holidays if you have clicked on this site. Would you like to find out as much information as possible as a prospective visitor of ours and ensure that your well-planned stay here is untroubled and cloudless? We are ready to help you; we have collected all the useful hints and tips you might need to be familiar with when you arrive in our town. If you come here just for a one-day visit, an important starting point could be the car park in the town centre, where we have introduced reduced parking fees this year for the safety of your car even for all day. The spa and thermal lake are just a five-minutes’ walk from here. You must not skip bathing in the lake as it offers you an unforgettable experience in winter and summer alike. Should you need any up-to-date information, just pop in the Tourinform Office, where you can get further useful hints on the leisure opportunities; events, places of interest in the area and some other services. As for a program after bathing, we recommend our restaurants to your attention where you can also taste the specialties of Zala gastronomy. After a substantial dinner you should take a walk in the inner town or join a historic sightseeing tour, or perhaps you could take a “Dotto” sightseeing train to look around. You may interrupt the “Dotto” sightseeing in Egregy where your family members (except children and the driver on your way home) can make the day in Hévíz richer in experiences by wine tasting in the winery row. No matter which season you choose to come for a holiday in Hévíz, before leaving home you should browse our booklet of the local events; the spa concerts, shows and seasonal festivals offer you to have great fun. With regard to all these, we believe that you’d rather come and stay in Hévíz for longer than one or two days so that you will have a chance to experience each opportunity both of the active and passive ways of recreation. The hotels in Hévíz await their guests with a wide range of services of high standard. You can make your choice from a rich variety of 3, 4 and 5-star hotels or private guest houses with an atmosphere of intimacy. The services of the Hévíz hotels and guest houses include curative treatment, health-giving therapy, wellness recreation, family relaxation and exercise programs equally. If you need any further information, contact us via E-mail or on telephone. >>> TAKE HÉVÍZ HOME! Visit our office, where you can buy many „Hévíz marked” products as a gift. If you don’t have any time to get there during your vacation, you can order these products from our webshop. Order prospect simple >>>

tartalom: + 1 Handmade, all-natural, fruit-packed In a small workshop on Egregyi Wine Hill, gently overlooking Hévíz, Csizmás Syrups are born. Their defining feature? Real fruit, no artificial flavors or sweeteners. László Németh, the founder and creator, wanted to revive the authentic taste of syrups he grew up with — the kind where “raspberry tastes like raspberry.” If you too remember the taste of real, homemade syrup, László’s creations will bring back that countryside nostalgia with every sip. Everything was in place — It just had to begin Gastronomy and hospitality have always been close to László’s heart, having worked in these fields abroad before returning home to Hungary. His family grows fruit in Pankasz, a village in the Őrség region, so when there was surplus fruit, László experimented with making his own raspberry, strawberry, and sour cherry syrups. After much trial and error, the Csizmás Syrup brand was born — and customer feedback quickly confirmed its place in the market. Real fruit, real taste, without compromise. Ingredients from trusted sources Since its founding in 2018, Csizmás Syrup has followed one simple principle: only bottle what László himself would happily consume. Most of the ingredients come from family production: raspberries, strawberries, and sour cherries are grown in Pankasz, Vas County. Elderflowers are foraged by László himself each May, far from roads and pollution. Hemp is grown right behind his workshop on the Egregyi Wine Hill. Traditional craftsmanship, no compromises Every step of the process is done by hand — from milling the fruit to bottling — ensuring the highest quality. Csizmás Syrups are made cold-pressed, without pasteurization or cooking, preserving the fruits’ authentic flavor, color, and vitamin content. The juices retain fruit pulp and seeds, adding body and richness: raspberry seeds remain in the syrup, strawberry bits stay in the juice. The fruit content is impressively high — at least 40%. Only minimal preservatives and just enough sugar are used to achieve the desired taste profile. As László says: “Never skimp on the fruit and work as quickly as possible.” The result is a product that captures nature’s true flavors — no artificial aromas, just lasting, real taste. Real fruit, lasting flavors The product range includes raspberry, strawberry, sour cherry, elderflower, and the unique hemp syrup. The hemp version is lightly herbal, calming, and many enjoy it as a relaxing evening drink. László only releases products he’s personally satisfied with — if a recipe doesn’t meet his high standards, it doesn’t make it to market.   Product highlights Hemp Syrup Hemp syrup is a true rarity, unique in both taste and effect. Made from industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa) grown without chemicals on Egregyi Wine Hill, László harvests the female hemp flowers in autumn and cold-processes them to preserve their valuable active compounds — known for their calming and stress-relieving properties. The syrup’s flavor is gently spiced, refreshingly herbal, and balanced with a hint of lemon. It contains only natural ingredients and a minimal amount of sugar. Perfect as a refreshing drink diluted with water or soda, but many also enjoy it before bedtime for its soothing effects. Serving Tip: For best taste, mix Csizmás Syrup with water or soda in a 1:8 ratio. Where to buy Hévíz Farmers’ Market

Imagine a vast body of water — over 1,000 meters deep and more than 400 times the size of Lake Balaton — once rippling across this land. The story of the Pannonian Lake is not just a fascinating chapter of geological history, but a legacy that continues to shape the region: it left behind mineral resources, fertile soils, and even inspired legends. Discover how an ancient lake transformed Transdanubia — and why its impact is still felt today.

An Inland Sea for Millions of Years

At its greatest extent, the Pannonian Lake covered an enormous area, far surpassing the size of today’s Balaton. For millions of years (approximately 12 to 8.5 million years ago), it dominated the region. As surrounding mountain ranges gradually rose, the lake became cut off from the world’s oceans. Its water slowly turned fresh, and its basin began to fill with sediments. Because of its isolation, the lake developed a unique ecosystem with many endemic species.

The Lake Didn’t Appear Overnight

The Pannonian Lake didn’t simply “appear” in the Carpathian Basin. Its formation was the result of millions of years of tectonic activity and shifting climate. It emerged as an independent, enclosed body of water — no longer connected to the open seas.

Deep Waters, Varied Shores

In some areas, the lake reached depths of over 1,000 meters. Elsewhere, shallower zones supported lagoons, river deltas, and small, isolated lakes. During high water periods, rocky shorelines formed along the mountain fringes — traces of which can still be found today in the Keszthely Hills and the Mecsek Mountains.

The Lake’s Retreat — and Sediment Legacy

Despite its size, the lake was eventually filled in by immense volumes of sediment, carried mainly by rivers flowing from the Alps and the Carpathians. Over the course of 6.5 million years, it gradually disappeared from the landscape.

What did it leave behind?

Its sediments — composed mostly of sand, clay, and fine silt — became the so-called “Pannonian formations,” which today hold key mineral resources (such as petroleum) and aquifers. These formations define much of the surface geology of Transdanubia, including the Zala Hills.

Fertile soils later formed on the laminated silty and clay-rich deposits of the Somló Formation. Even the legendary “Tihany goat’s hoof” fossils — actually worn shell fragments of the Congeria ungulacaprae mollusk — can still be found embedded in these ancient layers.

The Final Lakes and a Gradual Goodbye

Because most of the sediment entered from the northwest, north, and northeast, the lake slowly retreated toward the south and southeast — as if it were “withdrawing” from what is now Hungary.

Small remnant lakes persisted for much longer in areas of present-day Slavonia (Croatia) and northern Serbia, but due to their different scale, character, and fauna, they are not considered true successors of the ancient Pannonian Lake.
