Complicated patterns, rich ornamentation, monumentality, strong contrasts and dynamism, these are the main stylistic traits of the Baroque age. The city of Győr is almost synonymous with Baroque becoming the defining style of art during the Turkish occupation of Hungary, as it is considered to be one of the most important centers of the Baroque period. However, the style was popular in other towns and villages of the region too. Seek out these beautiful buildings and sculptures and experience the spirit of the Baroque period.
The Archduke Friedrich Habsburg, general field marshall and supreme commander of the Monarchy's armies settled down in his Mosonmagyaróvár manor in 1920 becoming the first of the city's bourgeoisie. He was greatly respected in the city was invited to all social events. The town's most beautiful Baroque monument is the Saint Gotthard parish church located in the historical downtown. The crypts under the church were offered to the Habsburg family by the town. This is the final resting place of Archduke Friedrich Habsburg and his wife Princess Isabella of Croy. Their double-walled metal coffins can be found in the two chambers at either side of the crypt on red marble catafalques.

The Baroque monument depicts the crucified Jesus and the two thieves. The black cottonwood beside the Calvary scene is a protected natural asset. The tree, with a trunk circumference of 550 cm is approximately 100 years old.
Baron Lázár Apponyi de Nagyappony, Lord of Ráró had the Calvary scene where everything appears in threes built in 1738. There are three slender cube capital columns on the oval parapet. These uphold the three-sided vault. Below them, we see three crosses, the outer two turn toward the middle one. The Baroque monument depicts Jesus on the cross and the two thieves at either side. The wrought iron cross at the top of the roof is an impressive work. The roof is made of red shingles.

This complex of Baroque churches is unique throughout Hungary and is considered to be one of the seven wonders of Győr-Moson-Sopron County. Even from afar, it is already an impressive sight with its 47-meter tower rising gracefully toward the sky and its two chapels. It looks like a mother with her two children.
The Chapel of the Holy Cross on the right was built in the 16th century. At this time, the building was surrounded by a cemetery. The Heroes' Chapel on the left side was built in 1929 with donations made by village citizens, marble plaques honor the names of the fallen heroes of the war.

Thermal tour
The name of the next tour including the word “thermal” can be misleading as it is really a bicycle tour. We recommend it to those who would like to cycle, but also desire a little relaxation at the end of the day. The route we offer connects the medicinal and adventure spas of the Rye Island as part of a bicycle tour. The participants of the tour have the opportunity to visit each of the thermal spas, get to know the landscape of the Rye Island while cycling, and protect the Nature, as their emission is almost zero. The starting point is Komárom and the destination is Dunajská Streda. The chosen route is also favourable for those who are willing to cycle “only” to the destination, as there is an (indirect) train line between the two towns.
