Hungarian Heritage Sites
Centering on Keszthely and the Fenékpuszta area, this collection spans nearly two millennia of history. It highlights the 18th-century Baroque Festetics Palace, one of Hungary’s largest aristocratic residences, alongside the extensive 4th-century Roman ruins of Valcum. The list features archaeological remains of early Christian basilicas, Roman granaries, and military gates. Connecting these eras is the 'Védett fenyősor,' a historic black pine avenue planted by the Festetics family to link their urban palace with their rural estates.
