Nature is capable of unrepeatable wonders that can amaze you day after day. Here are some of the places worth visiting in the area:

The western tip of Lake Balaton is rich in castle ruins. From the remains of the castles on Rezi, Tátika and Csobánc hills, you can enjoy a fantastic panorama of Lake Balaton and the buttes. In Szigliget and Sümeg, knights’ tournaments and jousting events are held several times a week. The Festetics Palace in Keszthely is not only one of the most beautiful and largest palaces in Hungary, but its exhibitions (carriages, hunting trophies, model railways, travels of the aristocrats, palm house) provide varied programmes for several days, should the weather take a turn for the worse. Festetics Palace - Helikon Palace Museum - Keszthely, Szigliget Castle - Szigliget, Sümeg Castle - Sümeg, Rezi Castle - Rezi Hill, Tátika Castle - Tátika Hill, Csobánc Castle - Csobánc Hill, Star Castle - Balatonszentgyörgy

Museums aren't the first thing you think of when you are on holiday. However, a good museum is a nice alternative when the weather turns unfavourable. Some museums are worth visiting even in good weather. The exhibitions at Festetics Palace are well worth a visit, and the permanent exhibition on the history of Lake Balaton at the Balaton Museum is surprisingly interesting for children and adults alike. In Keszthely, there are several smaller museums in the town centre, from the Erotic Wax-Works to the Snail Parliament. These small exhibitions can be visited during a walk around the town. For those who are more interested in nature, we recommend the House of Nature, in the neighbourhood of which you can also find the Imre Festetics Animal Park. And while cycling along the Balaton bike path, you can visit the Water Mill and Spice Garden in Gyenesdiás.

The flora and fauna of the lake is unique due to the temperature and chemical composition of the water. Some species of the Hungarian flora and fauna can only be found here. Water lilies in the lake We may say it with good reason that the most unique plants of Lake Hévíz are the water lilies. The English physician and traveller Richard Bright also commemorated these special flowers in his book from 1815. White water lilies are autochthonous in the lake – although they have almost vanished, but a lot of them can be found in the sluice. In the end of the 1800s several attempts were made to plant various types of water lilies, of which the acclimatization of the Indian red water lily was successfully accomplished. The Indian red water lily was acclimatized in 1898 by Lovassy Sándor, a lecturer of the Academy of Economics in Keszthely.Since then the flower has become a real symbol of the town. Did you know that the home of the red water lily is actually the tropical Bengal, Eastern India? a stem develops even 10 to 20 leaves during a summer? the flowers open late at night and only close the next morning? blooming lasts from June to late November? the flowers are not only aesthetically important, but also play a significant role in decreasing the cooling of the water? the stolons trailing all over the bottom protect the medicinal mud? Little animals In addition to the flora, the fauna of the lake is also very diverse. Small unicellular organisms and vertebrates live here too. They do not disturb bathers, because only those will become aware of their existence who persistently search for them. The lake and its environment make home for plankton-crabs, water-snails, fish, dragonflies, leaf- and rose beetles, and even many species of butterflies. Did you know that 66 kinds of snail live in and around the lake? common carp and tench are autochtonous species of fish? However, you can also meet the mosquitofish, the Prussian carp or the pumpkinseed sunfish. in addition to the edible frog, also the marsh frog and the European fire-bellied toad live here? the European pond turtle, the smooth newt and some grass snakes come sometimes into view in the sedge marsh? the surroundings of the sluice are swarmed by wild ducks in the autumn and spring? The mute swans, black-headed gulls and Eurasian coot can find shelter here in the winter. tourists sometimes can see water shrew, common shrew or European mole? Protection forest, park Everybody takes delight in the colourful sight of water-lilies covering the surface of the lake. The red Indian water-lily was brought to Hungary in 1898 by Sándor Lovassy, the teacher of the Academy of Economy in Keszthely. These days the indigenous white water-lily of the Lake occurs mostly in the drainage canal due to the purification. The strictly protected plants are in bloom from the beginning of summer to the end of November. Water-lilies are significant for two reasons; in one hand, their leaves slow down the evaporation of the lake and on the other hand their runners all around at the bottom of the Lake protect the medicinal mud. The Berki Study Trail still unknown by most people, however, there are several sights worth visiting in the course of a walking tour. The Trail covers the Lake of Hévíz and the surrounding moor as well as its flora and fauna which is unique not only in Hungary but in Europe as well. Under the microscope... Typical plants of the heat spring are blue-green algae, whose certain species are able to live in high temperature because of the special composition of their proteins. Thiobacteria are also typical inhabitants of the lake, they are able to store the sulphur excreted from the water in their cells. Different strains of bacteria living in the lake make the water of the lake antiseptic. Also one of the special species of micromonospora lives in the lake, which is called ‘micromonospora heviziensis’ after its residence – since it has not been known before. It is a powerful protein- and cellulose decomposer, therefore it is an important organism of the underwater soil of the lake. The actinomycetes species also discovered in Hévíz is said to be special as well: it can only be found here in Central Europe. It accumulates iodine crystals in its cells and in their environment.

tartalom: + 1 Small-scale organic rarming in Zala Péter Bakos and his wife Zsuzsa left their former careers behind to start farming, building their model farm step by step. Here, they grow and process herbs, fruits, and spices into 100% pure juices, dried fruits, infused oils, essential oils, and floral waters. What makes them unique is their commitment to human-scale, artisanal production.Visitors can tour the workshop, taste natural delicacies, and learn firsthand about the healing power of herbs. Where people, animals, and plants thrive together Drawn to a sustainable, nature-connected lifestyle, Péter and Zsuzsa settled in Zalaszentlászló. Though they once lived in Budapest, their love for nature and interest in herbalism had always been there. When they found their property in the Zala Valley, they quickly realized its potential — wild herbs flourished everywhere. Over time, this blossomed into the Valley of Herbs. Their vision was simple: create a place where nature sets the rhythm, and the family only takes what each season offers. To deepen her knowledge, Zsuzsa completed formal phytotherapy training, gaining a deep understanding of the valley’s medicinal plants. Tradition meets modern processing In their “witch’s kitchen,” Valley of Herbs produces infused oils, dried fruits, pure juices, and herbal teas — all from natural, carefully selected ingredients. Modern pressing technology ensures minimal intervention for juices, while crafting infused oils, drying fruits, and preparing teas remains a hands-on, meticulous process. Every herb, spice, and fruit is sorted by hand before it goes into oils, dehydrators, or drying racks. Unlike industrial producers, Péter and Zsuzsa focus on quality over quantity. They use only their own crops or ingredients from trusted local farmers. Herbs are homegrown or wild-harvested from their land.  Their infused oils are blended with omega-3 rich Hungarian oil and flavored with homegrown basil, garlic, tarragon, and thyme.Dried fruits — apricots, plums, apples, sour cherries — are gently dehydrated at low temperatures to preserve their natural flavor and nutrients. Juices are pressed from seasonal harvests — apples, grapes, rowanberries, currants, beets, and pumpkins — without added sugars or preservatives. A little of everything in one place Their 15-hectare farm is a vibrant mix of wild meadows, orchards, herb gardens, and a fragrant spice patch. Chickens, roosters, and horses are part of daily life, cared for by Zsuzsa with joy. The farm also includes a small on-site shop, where, by appointment, visitors can buy their favorite products, join herb walks, and attend educational workshops.   Product highlights Dried fruits – Local, natural, handcrafted Valley of Herbs dried fruits are made exclusively from local, hand-selected produce. Only the best fruits are used — anything bruised or overripe is carefully excluded to maintain top quality in taste and appearance. Apples, pears, and plums are hand-picked, pitted, sliced, and gently dehydrated using an eco-friendly, small-scale drying system. Dried slowly at low temperatures (45–55°C) over several hours or even days, the fruits retain their color, vitamins, and natural sweetness. No added sugar, no preservatives — just the pure, sun-ripened flavor and aroma of the fruit.

The Life-Giving Winds of the Ice Age: How Loess Shaped the Land

Did you know that Transdanubia’s rich, golden soils are actually a gift from the winds of the Ice Age? Loess isn’t just a dry geological term — it’s an ancient natural recipe that gave rise to some of the most fertile soils in the Carpathian Basin. Where vineyards grow today and birds nest in loess cliffs, strong winds once carried yellow dust across the landscape — for thousands of years. Learn how this unique sediment shaped the land and why loess is still essential for sustainable farming today.

What Is Loess and How Did It Form?

The term loess comes from the German word lose, meaning "loose." Loess is a fine-grained, yellowish sediment that was deposited during the Pleistocene epoch (2.58–0.01 million years ago), particularly during glacial periods. It formed in periglacial environments south of the great Scandinavian ice sheet — cold, dry landscapes with little or no vegetation.

The dust was carried by strong Ice Age winds from floodplains and barren steppes, and slowly accumulated over tens of thousands of years. Eventually, calcium carbonate cemented these layers into loess, which developed characteristic vertical fissures.

It’s important to note that the Pleistocene wasn't a single “Ice Age,” but a period that included alternating cold and warm phases — some even warmer than today.

Loess and the Landscape

Loess gave the Carpathian Basin — especially Transdanubia — its distinct terrain.

Steep loess cliffs (sometimes up to 10 meters high), caves that provide nesting sites for bee-eaters and sand martins, centuries-old sunken roads carved into hillsides, and exposed root systems are all part of the landscape’s geological legacy.

Together, they define the unique character of this region — shaped by time, wind, and stone.

Fertility and Water Retention

Loess-rich areas have produced some of the most fertile soils in the region. Many local producers farm on land that sits atop loess. This creates an excellent foundation for agriculture — not just because of the high humus content, but also because loess has outstanding water-holding capacity. Its vertical pores allow moisture to penetrate deeply and remain in the soil, even during dry periods.

A Modern Echo — Dust from the Sahara

Interestingly, the fine Saharan dust that now reaches Central Europe more frequently can be seen as a modern counterpart to loess-forming material. It’s a reminder that the powerful natural forces that shaped the land long ago are still at work today — just on a different scale.

tartalom: + 1 A superfruit from Bocfölde On a quiet hillside near Bocfölde, vibrant orange sea buckthorn berries ripen by September. This is home to Kiss Sea Buckthorn, a family-run farm where every part of the plant is hand-harvested and processed into juice, jam, oil, powder, and tea. Márta Lakatos-Kiss and Károly Kiss made the switch from livestock to sea buckthorn cultivation, inspired by their children’s idea to explore new possibilities with their land. In 2015, they planted their first shrubs. By 2017, they were selling fresh sea buckthorn juice at markets, and by 2018, they were showcasing their products at festivals. Sea ​​buckthorn high in vitamin C are worth fighting for Sea buckthorn is a hardy plant, but harvesting and processing it is labor-intensive and not for the faint-hearted. Its tiny berries grow densely on thorny branches, making mechanical harvesting impossible. Márta and Károly hand-cut the branches with pruning shears, then freeze them to make berry removal easier. They ensure nothing goes to waste: the pulp becomes juice and jam, the skins are dried and ground into powder, the seeds are cold-pressed into oil, and the leaves are dried for tea. Sea buckthorn is a true superfruit — rich in vitamin C, sustainable, and fully utilized. Nothing goes to waste All Kiss Sea Buckthorn products are made exclusively from their own hand-picked, frozen berries. Their first product was freshly pressed 100% sea buckthorn juice, still made fresh for each market day in their Bocfölde workshop. Over time, they expanded their offerings with sea buckthorn powder and cold-pressed seed oil. A standout favorite is their sea buckthorn jam — mildly tart and not overly sweet, loved by those seeking a more natural flavor. Their cold-pressed seed oil, with its rich orange-brown hue, can be used both internally and externally. Drizzled over salads or taken by the teaspoon, it supports healthy skin, eyes, hair, and nails. Thanks to its high vitamin E content, it also serves as an effective anti-aging addition to natural cosmetics. Sea buckthorn powder adds a citrusy twist to baked goods and blends perfectly into yogurt or oatmeal. Visit the plantation The farm is located in Bocfölde, near Zalaegerszeg. While they don’t have regular visiting hours, Márta and Károly welcome guests by appointment, offering tours of the plantation and on-site product purchases.   Product highlights Sea Buckthorn Jam – Tart, Natural, Vitamin-Rich Márta’s jam contains 80% sea buckthorn and 20% apple. The apple softens the tartness and helps achieve the perfect texture — the focus is on preserving nutrients, not creating an overly sweet spread. After harvesting and freezing the berries, Márta steams them gently (without boiling), then presses them through a fine sieve to remove seeds and skins. The mixture is sweetened lightly with birch sugar and thickened with pectin. The jam undergoes careful heat treatment to retain its high vitamin content. The result is a mildly thick, pleasantly tart jam — perfect on toast, with yogurt, in pancakes, or as part of a cheese board.

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.

tartalom: + 1 The kingdom of aged cheese Just a few kilometers from Hévíz, in the tranquil village of Nemesbük, Jersey cows graze peacefully on lush pastures. From their rich, creamy milk, András Korosa creates something truly special. At this small family farm, aged cheeses are crafted with simple ingredients, homegrown herbs, and — above all — time and care, resulting in flavors that bring people back again and again. From curiosity to craft Fifteen years ago, András moved to Nemesbük. What started with poultry expanded to Racka sheep, and eventually led to his greatest passion: Jersey cows. Cheesemaking wasn’t a family tradition — as András says, “I’m a first-generation cheesemaker. Everything I know, I taught myself.” Initially, he processed milk just for his family, but soon, hotel guests wanted to buy his cheeses. That’s when Korosajt was born. András continuously hones his craft, learning from Swiss and German cheesemakers while adapting their methods to local conditions and his own vision. Simple ingredients, exceptional flavor All Korosajt products are made from the milk of András’ own Jersey cows. Their milk contains A2 casein, which many find easier to digest. While fresh cheeses like mozzarella, burrata, and soft spreads are available seasonally, Korosajt’s true focus is on aged cheeses. Favorites include natural and flavored varieties with basil, smoked, rosemary, thyme, chili, fenugreek, garlic, or red onion. No additives, no preservatives — only natural bacterial cultures and the patience of slow, traditional maturation. Where industrial producers rush to market, András lets his cheeses develop at their own pace, creating rich, complex flavors that can't be imitated. Production is limited by design. Each day’s milk yields just 10–12 kg of cheese, respecting the cows’ natural rhythms and seasonal variations. Experience cheese where it’s made At their farm in Nemesbük, András and his family welcome visitors for tastings and tours. You can meet the cows, join in milking, watch the cheesemaking process — or even try it yourself. András loves to share his knowledge of the animals, the craft, and the joys (and challenges) of rural life.   Product highlights Aged Korosajt cheeses Each cheese begins with fresh Jersey milk, processed immediately after the morning milking. After gentle pasteurization to preserve its nutrients, the milk is cultured and set with natural rennet. The curds are then shaped, brined, and aged for at least 3–4 months. During aging, the wheels are regularly turned and washed in brine, allowing a natural rind and deep flavors to develop. Available both plain and with herbs grown in the farm’s own garden — basil, rosemary, thyme, garlic, red onion, chili, and fenugreek. All without additives, all naturally made. Best enjoyed with a glass of local wine, homemade syrup, and a slice of sourdough bread.

tartalom: + 1 Unique delicacies preserved in a jar At Margit Kreiner’s stand at the Hévíz Farmers’ Market, you can sample smoked, spiced quail eggs, wild garlic pesto, paprika creams, syrups, and jams. In Raposka, a quiet corner of the Balaton Uplands at the foot of Szent György Hill, nearly 400 quails chirp daily under the care of Margit and her daughter, thanking them with hundreds of tiny, nutritious eggs. Quail eggs are considered a healthy delicacy, but when smoked and preserved in olive oil, they become a true gourmet treat. Farming as a passion Margit has been immersed in agriculture and homestead farming her whole life. Over the years, she has gained extensive experience in animal husbandry. Previously, her family lived in Káptalantóti, where they raised hundreds of poultry and sheep, produced herbal teas, and cultivated lavender and roses. After moving to Raposka, she continued her passion on a smaller scale. Inspired by an experienced friend, she began raising quails, learning everything through reading, hands-on experience, and trial and error. Today, she and her daughter care for several hundred quails, providing them with fresh water and high-quality feed daily. From the start, Margit has avoided industrial feeds, sourcing natural grains — corn, wheat, barley, peas, soy — from a nearby farm. This ensures the quails remain healthy and their eggs retain a rich, characteristic flavor. As Margit says “Anyone who has tasted eggs from industrially-fed poultry and then tries one from a home-raised bird fed with natural grains will immediately notice the difference.” Not only is the taste superior, but the appearance is too. The yolk has a deeper, more vibrant color that remains golden even after cooking. Artisan processing, creative flavors After boiling, the quail eggs are soaked in brine for several hours, then smoked over beechwood. The firm, white eggs are then preserved in olive oil with garlic, chili, wild garlic, or other seasonal herbs. Each flavor is the result of Margit’s own experiments — nothing reaches the market until she deems it 100% perfect. The most popular flavors include plain, garlic, and chili. Tip: Don’t discard the marinade — the aromatic olive oil can be used for cooking after the eggs are gone! Customers often suggest new flavor ideas, which Margit gladly tries to bring to life. While the smoked quail eggs are the flagship product, Margit also makes wild garlic pesto, sweet and spicy paprika creams from homegrown vegetables, and fruit-based jams and syrups.   Product highlights Wild garlic pesto Made from freshly harvested wild garlic at its seasonal peak, this pesto combines finely chopped leaves with olive oil, salt, and either walnuts or chili. Margit uses only the leafy parts to preserve the fresh, mildly garlicky aroma. She collects the wild garlic herself from trusted local spots, sometimes with the help of family. The versions with walnuts or chili add a distinctive twist to this spring delicacy. Perfect for pasta, spread on toast, as a meat accompaniment, or as a salad dressing. No preservatives are used. Spiced smoked quail eggs in olive oil One of Margit’s most unique creations, these smoked quail eggs preserved in olive oil are a true delicacy. The quails are home-raised on natural feed, resulting in eggs rich in vitamins and minerals. Preparing these tiny treasures is a meticulous process: The eggs are soaked in vinegar water to remove natural pigments, then boiled in salted water, cooled, and peeled by hand. After that, they are smoked over beechwood for three hours. The prepared eggs are then submerged in olive oil, plain or flavored with garlic, chili, or seasonal herbs. The oil acts not only as a preservative but also captures the smoky and spicy aromas, making it perfect for later culinary use. Made exclusively with natural ingredients, free from additives and preservatives, this product has a shelf life of six months. Enjoy as an appetizer, finger food, or salad topping — a true homemade delicacy from Raposka.   Where to buy Hévíz Farmers’ Market Liliomkert Market, Káptalantóti

The Life-Giving Winds of the Ice Age: How Loess Shaped the Land

Did you know that Transdanubia’s rich, golden soils are actually a gift from the winds of the Ice Age? Loess isn’t just a dry geological term — it’s an ancient natural recipe that gave rise to some of the most fertile soils in the Carpathian Basin. Where vineyards grow today and birds nest in loess cliffs, strong winds once carried yellow dust across the landscape — for thousands of years. Learn how this unique sediment shaped the land and why loess is still essential for sustainable farming today.

What Is Loess and How Did It Form?

The term loess comes from the German word lose, meaning "loose." Loess is a fine-grained, yellowish sediment that was deposited during the Pleistocene epoch (2.58–0.01 million years ago), particularly during glacial periods. It formed in periglacial environments south of the great Scandinavian ice sheet — cold, dry landscapes with little or no vegetation.

The dust was carried by strong Ice Age winds from floodplains and barren steppes, and slowly accumulated over tens of thousands of years. Eventually, calcium carbonate cemented these layers into loess, which developed characteristic vertical fissures.

It’s important to note that the Pleistocene wasn't a single “Ice Age,” but a period that included alternating cold and warm phases — some even warmer than today.

Loess and the Landscape

Loess gave the Carpathian Basin — especially Transdanubia — its distinct terrain.

Steep loess cliffs (sometimes up to 10 meters high), caves that provide nesting sites for bee-eaters and sand martins, centuries-old sunken roads carved into hillsides, and exposed root systems are all part of the landscape’s geological legacy.

Together, they define the unique character of this region — shaped by time, wind, and stone.

Fertility and Water Retention

Loess-rich areas have produced some of the most fertile soils in the region. Many local producers farm on land that sits atop loess. This creates an excellent foundation for agriculture — not just because of the high humus content, but also because loess has outstanding water-holding capacity. Its vertical pores allow moisture to penetrate deeply and remain in the soil, even during dry periods.

A Modern Echo — Dust from the Sahara

Interestingly, the fine Saharan dust that now reaches Central Europe more frequently can be seen as a modern counterpart to loess-forming material. It’s a reminder that the powerful natural forces that shaped the land long ago are still at work today — just on a different scale.

tartalom: + 1 Beef specialties from Csáford Berkovics-Tarsoly Lídia has combined family heritage with accounting precision to build her small-scale operation, where every meat product reflects genuine care and expertise. There are no additives, no shortcuts—only natural ingredients, time, and attention. Thanks to their nature-friendly livestock farming, Lídia creates products that are flavorful on their own. A visit to their farm introduces you to a family who treats their animals with deep respect. Come and taste their authentic flavors! Back to the roots Lídia grew up immersed in farming life. Her father raised cattle and processed meat, so slaughtering, feeding, and all aspects of animal husbandry were part of her everyday world. Spending time alongside her father, she learned first-hand what it means to raise animals responsibly, process meat, and create quality food. Although she studied accounting and initially worked in that field, she soon found her way back to farming. What started as a hobby—raising cattle for family use—soon grew into a business. Today, she runs her own farm, guided by the knowledge passed down from her father. Respect for animals shows in product quality At Lídrind Porta, animals live in free-range conditions, grazing along the banks of the Zala River. Their well-being directly impacts the quality of the meat. The family also grows their own feed, ensuring complete control over what goes into their products. Their goal: to raise healthy, well-cared-for animals that provide high-quality meat for their handcrafted products. Butchering, cutting, curing, and smoking are all done by hand at their small-scale facility in Csáford. Natural beef specialties LídRind Porta's signature products include smoked beef ham, sausage, and salami. They have also expanded into pork products and offer fresh farm eggs. A recent specialty is their basturma—a spiced, air-dried beef rolled in an aromatic herb crust. Served with sourdough bread and homemade cheese, it’s a true delicacy. Lídia follows a natural approach not only in animal husbandry but also in meat processing. Preservation is done simply with salt, deliberately avoiding nitrites, artificial colors, and fast-curing methods. Smoking is carried out with acacia and beech wood. Hams are cured slowly, developing their distinct flavors and textures naturally—unlike industrial products where shortcuts are the norm. Seasonings are made from natural ingredients, often home-grown, such as paprika for their spicy salami and juniper berries for unique flavor profiles. Farm-to-table on the Csáford Vineyard At Lídrind Porta, you’re not only welcome to buy their products—you can taste them right on the farm. Their countryside dining experience includes generous cold platters, hearty hot dishes, and homemade desserts, like traditional Zala-style pork fat pastries. The heart of their hospitality lies in sharing good food and memorable experiences. A visit to Lídrind Porta offers more than a meal; it’s an invitation into the world of small-scale farming, meat processing, and artisanal production. Visits are by appointment, so be sure to book ahead by phone.   Product highlights Smoked beef ham & sausage LídRind Porta’s beef sausage and smoked ham are crafted for those who appreciate traditional flavors and pure ingredients. Made from free-range, home-raised cattle, the sausages are seasoned with classic spices—paprika, garlic, pepper, and salt—without any artificial additives. They are hand-stuffed into natural casings and smoked over beech and acacia wood. The smoked beef ham undergoes a long, cold-smoking process and is preserved using only natural salt. Cuts such as thigh, shoulder, and neck are cured individually for optimal flavor and texture. Slow curing and gentle smoking give LídRind Porta products their distinct character. No preservatives, colorants, or fast-cure methods are used.   Where to Find LídRind Porta: 8795 Zalaszentgrót, W3G9+37 Google Maps More information & Contact: Facebook Phone: +36 30 792 2968

Did you know the Zala River once flowed into the Drava and only later “found” Lake Balaton?
 The history of western Hungary’s water systems is not just a fascinating geological puzzle — it reads like an epic of Earth history: riverbeds shift, rivers “consume” one another, and even Lake Balaton doesn’t enter the scene until the final chapter. Discover how nature reshaped this landscape stroke by stroke — and how the Zala became Balaton’s most vital source of water.

The Quaternary Period and the Power of Landscape Formation

What sets the Quaternary Period (2.58 million years ago to the present) apart from earlier geological epochs is that the surface-shaping processes of this time — and the landforms they produced — continue to define our geographic environment today.

Pleistocene Changes: Riverbed Migrations and Terraces

One of the most pivotal surface processes during the Pleistocene (2.58 to 0.01 million years ago) was the migration of riverbeds and the formation of terraces and alluvial fans. These changes were closely tied to the slow retreat of the Pannonian Lake, which once filled much of the Carpathian Basin (see also: The Legacy of the Ancient Pannonian Lake).

The Ancient Danube Moves West

The early Danube initially flowed westward across what is now western Hungary, draining into the retreating Pannonian Lake. This westward course likely remained until the early Pleistocene.

A River’s Great Turning Point

The most dramatic hydrological change in the Carpathian Basin occurred between the Pliocene and Pleistocene: the formation of the Danube’s Visegrád Gorge (today’s Danube Bend), which diverted the river toward the center of the country and what is now the Pest Plain.

This shift profoundly affected all its former western tributaries — including the Zala.

The Story of the Zala: Migration and Capture

The river system of Central Transdanubia evolved in surprising ways, and the Zala’s journey is one of its most remarkable chapters. The Rába River already flowed northeastward toward the Little Hungarian Plain. The ancient Marcal, running northward, flowed into the Rába — and into it, in turn, flowed the ancient Zala.

But nature redrew the map — using the Zala as its brush. A now-vanished river flowing from north to south (its remnants visible today between Zalaszentgrót and Zalavár) cut into the landscape through a process called headward erosion — where rivers erode backward into the terrain, much like a hot knife slicing through butter. Eventually, it cut into the ancient Zala’s valley and “captured” the river, diverting it into its own course.

A New Path — and the Birth of Lake Balaton

From then on, the Zala made a sharp turn south at Türje and — with no Lake Balaton yet in existence — initially emptied into the Drava. Later, as the depression that would one day become Lake Balaton deepened, the Zala was gradually drawn toward it.

Lake Balaton, as a continuous body of water, is only about 5,000 years old — but for millions of years before, the Zala had already been on a winding journey that ultimately made it Balaton’s primary source of water, and the most life-giving river in the region today.

tartalom: + 1 Small-batch syrups, just the way they should be Tucked away in a quiet courtyard in Alsópáhok, Csilla Nagy has created her own little syrup sanctuary. Here, rich, colorful syrups are made not from artificial flavors, but from real, carefully chosen fruit. Csilla didn’t follow a long-standing family recipe — syrup-making became her personal reinvention, a new start built on curiosity and professional know-how. Determined to craft syrups without preservatives while preserving all the goodness of the fruit, she trained as a food preservation specialist. The result? Fourteen irresistible flavors that taste like biting straight into the fruit. Reinvention as a way of life Csilla believes in turning life upside down every seven years. She has worked in market research, healthcare, retail, and hospitality — as she puts it, “The only thing I haven’t done is cast church bells.” In 2024, her latest seven-year cycle began with syrup-making in her new home, Alsópáhok. It wasn’t just about taste. Csilla wanted to understand the science, too — so she earned a qualification to ensure her syrups are both long-lasting and nutritionally rich, without relying on preservatives. As if you’re biting into fresh fruit Most of Csilla’s ingredients come from local farmers. Apples, strawberries, and blackberries arrive fresh from Bókaháza. Elderflowers? She picks them herself in May, far from busy roads, in clean forest areas. She never buys industrial fruit purées. Every berry, every apple is pressed and processed fresh by her own hands. The syrups are hot-filled, but without preservatives. Minimal water is added — sometimes none at all — resulting in rich, velvety syrups with up to 60% fruit content. Even the pulp stays in when it adds to the experience. For fruits like sour cherry or redcurrant, Csilla leaves the flesh for its texture and nutrients. A taste of tradition and adventure Millu Manufaktúra’s range is divided into two main categories: Classic Hungarian fruits: apple, strawberry, raspberry, sour cherry, redcurrant, blackberry, elderflower. Refreshing summer exotics: lime, orange, grapefruit-ginger, mango. Even with exotic ingredients, Csilla insists on natural methods: she presses citrus fruits by hand and uses real ginger infusions, avoiding artificial flavors entirely. Her recipes follow a consistent base but are fine-tuned after tasting — focusing on consistent, small-batch quality rather than mass production.    Product highlights Apple, strawberry & blackberry syrups — Familiar, yet fresh For these syrups, Csilla sources fruit from Bókaháza, ensuring every bottle reflects the flavors of the region. Each fruit is hand-selected, as preservative-free production requires extra care to avoid overripe or damaged produce. Only perfectly ripe fruit is processed immediately. The apple syrup is clear and golden, with a gentle sweetness and crisp acidity — tasting just like a freshly bitten apple. Light and refreshing with soda, gently spiced when served warm, like an apple tea. The strawberry syrup is bright red, thick, and full-bodied, with an intense aroma and the sweetness of fresh-picked berries. Blackberry syrup is a deep, elegant burgundy with a bold, slightly tart yet rounded flavor — ideal for those who enjoy richer, more complex fruit notes. All three syrups contain no artificial colors or flavors — only fruit, a little sugar, and the care of traditional handcrafting. Where to buy Hévíz Farmers’ Market

Flavius Theodosius, the emperor who was a sickly child, or the best-known legend of the origin of Lake Hévíz

According to the ancient legend about the birth of the lake and its healing powers, Flavius, a Roman boy, was brought up by a Christian nurse here in Pannonia. The boy was weak and of poor health but his father was a great military leader so the nurse prayed to Virgin Mary to help him. The Holy Virgin, hearing her prayer, caused a spring to gush forth, in the healing water of which the child was bathed every day. The hot water of the spring and the steaming mud made the child's body grow stronger and stronger. Later, the boy became the Emperor of Eastern Rome, Flavius Theodosius, who made Christianity the state religion of his empire in 391. Since then, the water of the spring has been feeding Lake Hévíz and has brought healing to many.


When it comes to Hévíz and the Romans, there is no doubt that there were several places in the settlement and the surrounding area where people lived in Roman times. Local excavations show that there was a significant settlement in the period of the Roman empire in the present-day Egregy district. Several finds of the Villa Rustica - or villa farm - show that the settlement was inhabited from the 1st century until the 5th century. Roman artefacts were found not only in Egregy but also in other parts of Hévíz: Roman coins, earthenware, and an altar stone of Jupiter were found in the bed of Lake Hévíz.


The formation of Lake Hévíz in reality…

Lake Hévíz was born at the same time as Lake Balaton 20-22 thousand years ago. The origin of Lake Hévíz dates back to the time when the basalt mountains around Lake Balaton and Lake Balaton itself were born. At the end of the Pannonian period, volcanoes broke up the landscape of the Transdanubian region. The first signs of postvolcanic activity were the eruption of hot springs, such as the original Hévíz thermal spring. Archaeological excavations show that people lived here as early as the end of the Stone Age. In addition, many legends are dating back to different periods about the healing properties of the water here. According to Roman remains and finds, Hévíz was already a settlement 2,000 years ago, but even more surprisingly, water samples taken upon the discovery of the spring cave suggest that the cold water from the spring is 8,000 years old, while the hot medicinal water is 12,000 years old.

tartalom: + 1 Medicinal mud The medicinal mud which thickly covers the lake-bed is also worth mentioning. The unique medicinal mud of Hévíz contains organic and inorganic substances, and reduced sulphides also have special healing effects.
  The bed of Lake Hévíz is covered by a 1-7 metre-thick layer of natural, mainly organic medicinal mud, which is dark-grey by colour and soft by texture. The thermal water and medicinal mud were formed in the Pannonic-sea tens of thousands of years ago, and they are suitable for complex physiotherapy treatments, and for the treatment of all kinds of rheumatic and locomotive diseases. The medicinal mud is applied as mud-pack during the treatments. According to the opinion of specialist doctors, a maximum of six body parts can be wrapped in mud at a time. The main effect of medicinal mud is to keep the hands and body parts warm. The duration of the mud treatment is 20 minutes, after which at least a 30 minute period of relaxation is recommended. It is recommended for the following diseases: in case of chronic musculoskeletal diseases, it is indicated for both degenerative, atherosclerotic disease forms and inflammatory diseases in case of certain orthopaedic, neurologic, medical and gynaecological diseases Mud packs can be carried out only on medical advice in Hévíz. Use the Hévíz mud as cosmetics! In addition to the traditional “wrapped” mud packs many cosmetic mud packs are also available these days in the beauty market – even those which were made of the Hévíz mud. The mud formed due to thousands of years of geological and biological processes has high humic acid and organic material content and heat retaining capacity, that is why it has been used in medicine for a long time. However, its cosmetic use is not entirely new. Experiments prove that it also has unique aesthetic effects: empties the excreta, enhances the metabolism of cells, increases the production of collagen, and the minerals inside refill the body. It is excellent for the smoothing of the face, neck and décolleté, and even for body shaping in case of using it as a treatment course. Its regular use enhances the defence mechanism of the immune system. The products made of mud smoothen and soften the skin. They have a beneficial effect on the renewal of the skin and connective tissue cells, reduce inflammation and the signs of aging, because the thermal effects dilate the capillaries, therefore the nutrients- and oxygen supply increases and as a result, the skin becomes more resistant.    These cosmetic products are only made of natural ingredients, their essential minerals, vitamins ensure the balanced functioning of the processes among the cells. Already after the first treatment, you can feel the change on your skin – it will have a silky, youthful, fresh and velvety touch.  Among the products based on mud can be found soaps, mud baths, masks, wraps, creams, facial cleansers, massage creams, body scrubs, balms and body lotions too. You can get more information about the mud products in our webshop or in the Tourinform Office in Hévíz! Feel free to try it!

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 Treatment with water In the course of which the physical features of water are used. The effect of the therapy is greatly enhanced by the treatment with medicinal water. It mainly increases the healing of those who suffer from musculoskeletal diseases. Depending on the position of the body, the immersion into the indifferent-temperature water has many positive physiological effects, such as blood „dilution”, decreasing lung breathing capacity, loosening trunk muscles, movement is easier with reduced body weight due to buoyancy, and water resistance also works as muscle toner.
The hydrostatic pressure of the water plays an important role in hydrotherapeutic methods: it has an effect on veins, skin vessels, it reduces the volume of the chest and the abdominal, influences the mechanism of breathing, improves kidney function, and reduces the circumference of the inflamed joints. The temperature of water – hot or cold – results in further changes opposite to each other. Vasodilatation occurs in a hot bath, the blood pressure rises and the heart beat accelerates. In a cold-water bath the blood vessels constrict and as a consequence the blood pressure increases, the heart rhythm decreases and the coronary artery constricts. Hydrotherapeutic treatments, thus treatments carried out with water, include, in addition to the mud and weight bath treatments, which were listed at the basic elements of the Traditional Hévíz Therapy, the following methods: Carbonated bath treatment takes place in a special bath tub. The carbonated water is produced by using the medicinal water of Lake Hévíz. It means a treatment with carbon dioxide “absorbed” by the water, which is suitable for treating patients suffering from heart diseases, high blood pressure and cardiovascular disorders. As a result of the treatment the surface veins expand and blood circulation is restored to normal. It improves the oxygen supply of the cardiac muscle, normalises blood pressure; if applied as a series of treatments the impact is longer-lasting. Indications / counter-indications: Artery and venous circulation disorders High blood pressure, Micro-circulation skin disorders Vegetative nervous system disorders Osteoporosis, chronic locomotive disorders Rehabilitation after heart attack Coronary stenosis, post-treatment of heart surgeries Four-section galvanic bath is also called hydro galvanic bath. Also two-section galvanic bath is often applied. The treatment takes place in plastic tubs filled with medicinal water. Direct current is led to the bath tub. Galvanic bath is recommended for the treatment of the limbs, by the simultaneous application of medicinal water and galvanic current. It is successfully applied primarily for the residual symptoms of previous nerve pains and inflammations, and secondarily for wear (degenerative) disorders. If it is used as a descending treatment it also has a pain alleviative impact. Indications / counter-indications: Alleviation of pain affecting multiple joints and body regions: Rheumatoid arthritis, soft tissue rheumatism Limb joint inflammatory and degenerative diseases Neuritis Sudeck atrophia (circulation disorder after limb injuries with local osteoporosis) Aortic stenosis Contrast bath therapyThe difference between cold and warm water is used for therapeutic purposes. Alternating cold and hot water promotes better circulation to the extremities. Underwater jet massageDuring the underwater jet massage the patient is laid in a medical tub filled with Hévíz healing water, where the temperature of the special tub’s healing water and the mechanic impact of the water jet are jointly applied for the massage therapy. Besides the water jet massage impact also the positive effects of the healing water are enjoyed by patients. The therapy is for individual guests only, and it is tailored according to the complaints of the patient. The therapy is also called “tangentor”, which is a therapeutic treatment based on balneotherapy, hydrotherapy and the mechanic impact of the water jet. The treatment is carried out in a special tub, by using a water jet with adjustable jet power, which can target various parts of the body. The water with a temperature of 34-36ºC is supplied from a pipe and it is targeted manually to various parts of the body. The massage stimulates the blood and lymph circulation and by this also stimulates the metabolism, furthermore contributes to the detoxification of the body. Due to the impact on the lymph system it also boosts the immune system. The therapy releases stress and relaxes the muscles. The vibration of the water penetrates the connective tissue, thus helps the renewal of the skin and restoring its plasticity. It has also got an alleviative effect. Indications release muscular tension, locomotor disorders, after injuries and operations, rheological disorders, nervous system disorders. Hydroxeur bathHydroxeur treatment – or Jacuzzi – is used when due to some reason manual massage cannot be applied or we wish to achieve a different impact. In a special tub the artificially generated air bubbles cause turbulent flow, which massages the entire body surface. The water flow gives a nice sensation to the patient, increases blood circulation and has a stimulating effect through the skin. It has weaker, lighter massaging power than the underwater jet massage. There are no counter-indications for the hydroxeur bath; therefore it can be used without physician supervision. Duration of the treatment: approx. 10 to 20 minutes.

Veal ragout with cream and vegetables and dödölle of Zala Mayer Tibor and Veress Ferenc Chef's recommendation, from Hunguest Hotels   Ingredients (4 servings) 1/2 kg veal round 1/2 kg porcini mushrooms 2 cloves of garlic 1,5 dl dry white wine 2 dl vegetable broth 2 dl cream salt freshly ground black pepper 1 bunch of parsley 2 tablespoons butter 2 tablespoons olive oil Preparation1. Heat the mixture of butter and olive oil and fry the veal cut into small but equal sized pieces, seasoned with salt and pepper in advance, and the finely chopped parsley and garlic.2.If every side of the meat cubes turned brown, pour the white wine and half of the vegetable broth. Cook over medium heat and half-covered until almost tender. Check it sometimes and pour some broth in it if it is not enough.3. In the meantime clean the mushrooms, cut them and add them when the meat is almost ready. Pour in the remaining vegetable broth and cook it until it is ready. 4.

Dödölle of Zala2 kg potatoes, salt according to taste, 2 onions 2 dl oil, 50 decagram flour This meal evokes my childhood, the free, barefoot summer times. My grandmother made it for me, whenever I wanted to. It is cheap, fast and very filling food. At the end of the month it stands everyone in good stead. Peel the potatoes cut them into small pieces, pour salty water over them to cover and cook them. Mash the cooked potatoes over the heat then sprinkle with flour and start to knead with a wooden spoon. It is a bit tiring procedure. It is OK if the batter is hard enough and the flour is completely worked off – it can be more or less, it depends on the quality of the potatoes- and our forehead is sweating. Turn off the cooker.Cut the onions into small cubes and fry them in oil until pink. Take a bigger pot and start to cut the ‘dödölle’ batter into big dumpling-shapes, then sprinkle with the onion and fat. If it is ready, serve it. It is very delicious freshly with sour cream, but if you have to warm it, fry it in a pan until it is crispy and serve it with some salad.

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!

Pottery, baskets or even hand-made soaps can be bought on the spot. The farmers’ market of Hévíz offers high-quality and chemical-free products for the conscious customers. Shopping here will not only support the local farmers, but it is a decision for healthy living. The 800 vendors, who offer their product for sale from time to time, have already decided for the Farmers’ market of Hévíz. Visit us, come and see for yourself!

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.
