Anonymus - whose statue is seen in the memorial park - wrote the book Gesta Hungarorum, according to which the leaders of the Hungarian tribes camped in this region for 34 days in order to determine the inner order of the new country. That is why the general public think of this place as the scene of the first parliament of the settlers.

Promenád 1896

The year 1896 is not only the time of the birth of the Feszty-Cyclorama but also the time of the heydays of the Austro-Hungarian Monarchy. This was the period when the development of the Hungarian economy was extremely spectacular. The 'promenade' was the walk of the towns of the time. The social life, the holidays, and the weekdays were spent there. Business relationships, social life, and entertainment found their way of expression on the walks.

The exhibition is organized in ten pavilions made of pine. The display in the pavilions present the relationship between men and forest (wood).
