The artwork commemorating the millennium of the Hungarian state ornaments the town’s main square since May 28, 2000. It was unveiled during the Millennial festivities in Lébény. The statue depicts Saint Stephen, the country’s founder as a young man with proud posture holding the symbols of power, the crown and the sword in his hand, as well as the country’s coat of arms. The statue was created by László Bujtás.

Of the 600 soldiers to be drafted to the frontlines in WWI, 173 never returned, they had lost their lives in Galicia, the Serbian and Romanian fronts and the battle of Doberdo-Piave. The municipality built a memorial in 1930 to honor their fallen heroes. The imposing bronze statue by Ottó Kalotai Kreipel titled Őrszem (Sentinel) was dedicated on June 1, 1930.

One of Hungary’s most significant monuments stands on the main square of Lébény, the Romanesque Saint James Church built in the 13th century. The walls of carved ashlar are imposing, only to be emphasized by the two gates and their beautiful 13th-century ornamental motifs.
