„The Town of Queens" /Veszprem, HUNGARY/
„The Town of Queens" /Veszprem, HUNGARY/
Veszprém is an old historical town. Veszprém is called the Town of Queens, since it was favored by medieval Hungarian queens. Gizella, bavarian wife of Hungary's first king, St. Stephen (997-1038), took refuge here when fleeing from rebels. Throughout the history the town attracted most of the Hungarian queens, many of whom having been crowned in Veszprém, which still pays tribute to its beloved queen with the Gizella Days, an artistic and scientific festival, taking place every May.
Population: 63.908 inhabitants.
