Keszthely's Must-See Treasures

Nearby, Lake Hévíz provides the world's largest swimmable thermal waters. Cultural sites include the Neoclassical Festetics Mausoleum and the Hunting Museum, which houses extensive trophy collections and a large-scale model railway exhibition within the castle grounds.
