Hegyfalu
 Szechenyi Manor
The Baroque, 17th-century manor was last remodelled in Classicist
style in 1815. The festoon in the tympanum above the
entrance frames a fragmented coat-of-arms. In the 20th
century, the manor was expanded in modern style. Today, a T. B.-Sanatorium works inside the building.
Holy Cross Church
The medieval church with a vaulted shrine was restored in 1745 but it gained its present form in the course of the Classicist style remodelling in 1815. The interior of the grand-sized church
is Classicist; the main altar and the pulpit were both made some
time after the construction.
Ikervar
The first hydroelectric station in Hungary
According to the Fejér Codex, one castle stood on both the right
and the left banks of the Raba River each at Ikervár, that were
watching over the river and its surroundings. This is where the
name of the village meaning Twin Castles comes from. The first
hydroelectric station in Hungary was built on the edge of the
village and it still works today.
Batthyany Manor
Its most significant sight is the Neo-
Renaissance Batthyanyi Manor
designed by Miklos Ybl. The historic garden surrounding the
manor, which is under preservation, used to spread over a lot
larger area in the last century, but its flora is still extremely rich.
Kam
Jeli Arboretum
The Jeli Arboretum is most astounding
during the blossom of the rhododendrons
in May and June. Due to the careful establishment of the
famous collective garden by István Ambrózy Migazzi, the evergreen
garden consisting of mostly rhododendrons could be
created. An interesting feature of the garden is that a section of it is
organised by the continents the plants derive from, based on plant
geography. The Founder rests in eternal peace near the garden.
Open:
01.04. - 30.04., Saturday, Sunday: 8am. - 5pm.
01.05. - 30.06., Monday to Sunday: 8am. - 5pm.
01.07. - 30.09., Saturday, Sunday: 8am. - 5pm.
Szeleste
Szeleste Arboretum
Szeleste was first mentioned in official documents in 1247. The ancient family of the settlement was the Szelestey family, which owned it up to the end of the 17th century. Its most important sight is the Romantic style Baich-Manor from 1885 and its 13.5-hectare protected garden.
The Szeleste Arboretum is a unique sight in Hungary with a pleasant atmosphere. Its
uniqueness in enriched by a rare perennial garden rich in various species.
Rum
Szechenyi Manor
The settlement was received by the Rumy family from King Andrew III in
1299. Countess Maria Széchenyi became its owner around 1525.
The present manor building was developed from the ancient castle
of the Rumy family. The originally one-story
Classicist building was remodelled by the
Szecshenyi family. Its present appearance is
Romantic Neo-gothic. The Szechenyi Manor, declared as national monument (today
a student dormitory), accepts domestic and
international guests throughout the summer.
