The venue of theTibor Gellén Memorial CAC Shows is
Vasszécseny
Vasszécseny is a friendly small village in Vas county, on the right bank of the Gyöngyös stream, 12-13 kilometers southeast of Szombathely. Today’s village was created by merging the villages of Lipárt and Szécseny.
The place was already inhabited in Roman times. In the Middle Ages, there was a smaller fortress on its territory, which was one of the fortresses of Sárvár. In 1318 he appears in the form of Zechun in the charter of the Cistercians of Rábakeresztúr. In 1346 it belonged to the castle estate of Sárvár. At the time of the Reformation there was a flourishing congregation here, who in 1613 held a synod in the church here. The Lutheran church was built in the 17th century by János Török Telekesi and his wife, later the Franciscan church in Szécseny was built using it. In the 1700s, Count Alajos Batthyány built the still standing baroque Ó-Ebergényi castle. The owners of the village in the 18th century became the Ebergényi, who built a new castle here around 1790, the Új-Ebergényi Castle.
The Ó-Ebergényi Castle is one of the most beautiful buildings of the Hungarian Baroque in Vas county. It was presumably built around 1750 on medieval foundations. At the turn of the century, its west wing burned down. The values of the castle were unfortunately destroyed, but the building survived the war unscathed. After the move of its last owner, the State Farm used it as a granary and then as an apartment. After 1970, it came under the management of the museum, but received little money to preserve it. As part of the Vas County Castle Program, restoration work began in 1983. The remaining truncated part of the building has been converted into a castle hotel, and has been operating again since 2019.
As its style is original Hungarian Baroque, it is a protected „A” category monument, in which one of the most beautiful, restored ceremonial halls in Western Hungary represents an outstanding value. The castle, rich in architectural and natural beauty, and its nearly 3-hectare primeval park can be reached via two romantic bridges. The park is bordered by the Gyöngyös stream and the original moat. The castle is a typical medieval building, it has several tunnels and secret corridors, which is connected with the New-Ebergényi castle.
The New-Ebergényi Castle is a two-storey listed castle built in the copf-style, surrounded by a 14-hectare park. The castle awaits its guests wishing to relax and unwind in this quiet, idyllic environment with a high-ranking hotel classification and satisfying all needs.
In the Vasszécseny is a special Mineral Museum and Geological Showroom in the village, which opened its doors in 2008. Its creator and operator is György Pődör, an engineering teacher and a local resident. The museum displays the minerals, rocks and fossils of historical Hungary and the surrounding countries. The showcases show countless more beautiful and more valuable minerals and fossils. There are micro-minerals, as well as UV minerals, which, despite their white color, boast amazing colors under the light of a UV lamp. The museum also boasts many interesting and beautiful minerals that can no longer be collected. Materials from Mátra (Gyöngyösoroszi, Recsk), Zemplén, Mecsek or Bakony can be seen, including a rare mellit from Csordakút. Also a curiosity is the Smithsonite mineral. Fossils (remains of old, extinct animals) have also been housed in the museum. There is also a dinosaur footprint on display. Marine, fang and tooth fossils are also found. The visitor can get acquainted with the geological ages, the concept of minerals, crystals, rocks and fossils. Visiting the museum is free!
