Once the site of a VOLÁN inter-city bus station, Széna tér is currently an open space with little going on around it. This will all soon change, with the creation of a memorial park and various works of art, including the Maze of Memories related to local history.
Eyewitness accounts
“The former city wall will be transformed into an installation. On a nearby firewall, we plan to create a large-scale work of art in an interactive form that evokes the personal thoughts of those with memories of the events during the ’56 Uprising. According to the concept, we will also commemorate them with a water feature,” writes Gergely Őrsi, mayor of District II, on his Facebook page.
With the help of photos from the communal archive Fortepan, the historical events of the area will be presented on a fence. After reading the QR codes, you can watch videos of various reminiscences.
