Pusztavacs - In the middle of the country


Some of our relatives lives in the middle of the country. The country was torn apart by the decision after the war Hungary lost 2/3rd of its territory. In 1960 geographist located the middle of the country and that was the time when Pusztavacs became famous. http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/b/b3/Orszagkozepe1.jpg

In 1978 an architect created a monument for the exact location close to the village. In the 80's there were Peace festivals there, I participated in some of them. We found old photos about one of the festival. This tradition stopped in 1985 because lack of organization
