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.
