Debreczen, Debrecen, Hungary
City of county rank with over 200,000 inhabitants, the second largest city in Hungary, centre of the region, the scientific and cultural centre of the eastern part of the country, festival city. The most convenient means of transport between Debrecen and the capital is the Intercity train service. The city can be reached on the highway M3 by car, on main roads No. 4 and No. 47, by air visitors can arrive at the Airport of Debrecen. During its history it was the capital of Hungary twice - in 1849 and in 1945. In its main square, in Kossuth square you can see the symbol of the town, the Calvinist Great church, where Lajos Kossuth read out the Declaration of Independence on the 14th of April 1849. From the tower of the church you can enjoy a beautiful view of the city. Behind the Great Church you can find the Calvinist College, where prominent figures of Hungarian culture studied and which has been working continuously since 1538. The Archives of the Calvinist Church and the Museum of the History of Education and Religious Art are housed here. Its Great Library has rare books which are considered to be unique in Europe as well as in the world. The Bible collection includes the volumes of the Holy Book in more than 250 languages. Next to the college you can find the oldest square of the town, the renewed D©bri square, which has become an intimate place in the town with its nice splashing water and comfortable benches. The D©bri Museum built between 1926 and 1928 presents rich collections of archaeology, ethnography, culture and local history as well as historical relics. The greatest attraction of the museum is the world-famous Munk©Lcsy-trilogy including Ecce Homo, Christ in front of Pilate and the Golgotha, which can be seen in one exhibition hall. The Museum of Literature collects the rich literary traditions of the town presenting nearly 50,000 exhibits, manuscripts, works of art from the time of poet Mih©Lly Csokonai Vit©bz to the present. Important collections are housed in the Memorial Museum of L©Lszl©d Holl©d and the Memorial Museum of Ferenc Medgyessy, too. Those who are interested in folk art, can visit the T©Um©Lr house, where they can get to know the traditions as well as the works of contemporary artists. In the row of workshops you can glimpse into the "behind-the-scenes" secrets of dress-makers, embroiderers, potters, dyers in blue, lace-makers and you can even try to make these articles yourself. In the most beautiful part of the town, in the Great Forest you can find the University of Debrecen founded in 1912. The impressive neo-baroque building is "decorated" by the well-designed, French-style monumental park with statues of famous preachers and with a huge fountain.
