Excursions around Szombathely, Hungary, November 17, 2001.
A TRIP TO KOSZEG, HUNGARY
Koszeg is famous for the battle in 1532 in which
a Knight (whose statue is behind Peter and Terry) turned
back 100,000 Turks, stopping the western expansion
of the Ottoman Empire and saving Vienna.
A group of us on what was the draw bridge over the moat
at the entrance to the castle that resisted the Turks.
Terry, Eva, Roza, and Peter inside the castle with the Battle plaque
The Church in Koszeg
The beautiful interior of the
Church, painted in blue trim.
In the Koszeg town square as we leave this historical town.
A church near Jak, Hungary that Roza
drives by on the way to work.

country church near Jak, Hungary
Roza and Terry again outside the Church
Yes, that roadside restaurant says "Mississippi"
and we are still in Hungary
Wait, there is more! Next to the Mississippi Road House
is the Motel Missouri!
Unfortunately, the Restaurant is not open, but there was no
catfish on the menu anyway, so it is just as well.
On the way back to Austria we stop at a Hungarian Restaurant
where we have good Hungarian food and music.
Roza lives near the Austrian-Hungarian border, so we stopped
to see the family home she is restoring before we headed back to
Slovenia through Austria.
