Culture and History
Esterházy Castle was rebuilt in the Neoclassical style after the earthquakes of 1810 to 1814, based on plans by Charles Moreau. The castle formerly had a theatre hall, a chapel, a large library, an art gallery and a hunting hall. The well-maintained English landscape park of Esterházy Castle can be visited independently.
The listed Lőportorony is considered unique in Europe. It is accessible from public areas, can be visited year-round and admission is free. The Gróf-Merán-Fülöp Hunting and Forestry Museum provides insights into the everyday work of hunting and forestry professions through exhibits and artefacts.
The Báracházi Cave on Guba Hill has three openings and is significant from a cultural and historical perspective. Remains of the three-toed prehistoric horse (Hipparion), the sabre-toothed tiger and the Csákvár hyena were found in the Báracházi Cave.
