The Trianon Memorial Park is located at the parking lot of the Károly Lookout Tower; he recalls the events of 1920; the memorial park was opened in 2020.

History was made at this memorial in 1989. The Pan-European Picnic was a peace demonstration on the Austro-Hungarian border near the town of Sopron (Ödenburg). With the consent of both countries, a border gate on the old Pressburger Landstrasse between St. Margarethen in Burgenland and Sopronköhida (Steinambrueckl) in Hungary was to be symbolically opened for three hours. On August 19, 1989, before the official start of the program, scheduled for 3 p.m., refugees from the GDR appeared at the scene of the event and broke through the border in several waves. The Hungarian border police did not prevent this escape, which became the first, truly spectacular action of German reunification. The memorial is a worthwhile excursion destination with a beautiful park, a walkway with informative display boards, the peace bell and the remains of the Iron Curtain.

In the memorial park in Trianon, the outline of Hungary was created from natural and small stones, the parts of the country annexed by the peace decree and the annexation of the parts of the country are symbolized by walking paths. The adjoining parts were paved with red stones, the area of today's Hungary with green stones, in the middle of which the double cross with the triple burial mound was placed. Hiking trails symbolize the color white.

The 350 km long, strictly monitored Iron Curtain ran right next to St. Margarethen. This border separated Hungary from western democracy, the free world, for forty years. On August 19, 1989, the Pan-European Picnic took place. A peace demonstration, where the border gate on the old Pressburger Landstraße, between St. Margarethen and Sopronköhida, was to be symbolically opened for three hours. The motto of the event was "Dismantle and take with you", so every visitor was allowed to cut off a piece of barbed wire and take it with them.

The four burial mounds are sites of the Čaka culture (around 1200 BC). In the largest was a stone chest. The cremation of the man buried with spear, knife and sword was found together with a set of earthenware, a bronze robe pin and a razor. Graves of men and women have been discovered in the neighboring mounds. The settlement belonging to the grave area may have been on the other bank of the salt lake, which was only drained 100 years ago. [wikipedia]

Interesting representation of the Hungarian borders. Parking, children's playground and a stand selling refreshments can also be found here. There are many hikers on the surrounding trails, so adjust your speed accordingly.
