  • Bonyhad description & Facts:

    'Capital' of the Vilgys, the varied architectural look of Bonyhad was shaped by the former German, Bukovina, Hungarian and Jewish inhabitants. The settlement was named after Bonyha, one of the sons of Transylvanian voivode Gyula (or Gulaz, Geula). In 1782 Bonyhad received market town rights, which was confirmed by Emperor Franz. The most famous industrial works in the settlement was formerly called the Hungarian Enamel and Metal Ware Factory. The production of enamel signs and advertising boards started in 1922 and of cooking utensils in 1923. Architectural heritage of Bonyhad includes the noteworthy early 20th-century mansion of the factory founder. Today a library, it is set in protected parkland. Built in 1795, the late Baroque synagogue is also a notable heritage site still preserving its original 18th-century shape. The first aristocratic centre might have been established in the area of the present-day Perczel Street in the 18th century. The buildings here demonstrate Baroque and eclectic elements. Several formerly independent villages such as Majos, Tabad and now belong to Bonyhad. The ethnographic picture of Majos is rather special. The village had been a Swabian settlement of Lutheran faith for 225 years until 1945 when following World War II Bukovina Szekely people from a Transylvanian village called Istensegats (literally God help us) were settled here. Formerly a well-to-do Swabian village with a rather closed community, Ladomany is today the holiday resort of Bonyhad. In Alsabrzsany there is a mansion built between 1740 and 1746 for the Perczel family. Barzsany was an independent village until 1928. In 1977 Bonyhad was granted city status. How to get there:
