is not hungarian this castle but from in austria!!

[SSFlorianGeyer]

No, both are in Hungary. But there is one Esterházy castle in Eisenstadt. It is indeed in Austria. (Or rather, it is in Austria today, because up to 1919 that territory belonged to Hungary too.)

Great little clip with beautiful music!

For everyone who enjoyed it I recommend the beautiful book "Schlösser in Ungarn" published by ReiseArt. The photographs by Otto Kaiser are magnificent and the text by Prof. Balász Deresényi gives a brief,but very good, description of 40 great hungarian castles.

@adfhun Nope, Bratislava was known as Breslawa or Breslauspurc since 900. It was not a Hungarian town.

Es tut mir leid! Ich wollte auf etwtewreyrwei komment reagieren!

[Koarl12]

No idea why what you are talking about. The reply was concerning the Castle in Kismarton (Eisenstadt). And that region belonged to Hungary until 1921. So what?

[adfhun]

But this Castle in Fertőd in this video part of Republic of Hungary ALSO TODAY and built hungarian nobleman and this therritory in the history never part of Austria, max. Kingdom of Hungary was part of the Austrian Empire like Bohemia.(Österreichises Kaiser war König in Ungarn und König in Bohemia...)

So wtf??!

After WWI:

The "Treaty" of Trianon: Hungary lost 72% of its land and lost its sea ports in Croatia, 3,425,000 Hungarians found themselves separated from their motherland. The country lost 8 of its 10 biggest Hungarian cities!

Pozsony, hungarian capital 15th-18th cent.) actually Bratislava, Slovakia.

LOST:Burgenland(actually in Austria), Muravidék( act. in Slovenia), Felvidék-Upper Hungary( act Slovakia), Transylvania(act. in Romania), Kárpátalja(act. in Ukraine).Vajdaság ( act. in Serbia).

History of Örség(Burgenland):

In 1043 a peace treaty between Kaiser Henry III and King Aba Sámuel of Hungary fixed the western border of Hungary along the Leitha river. The territory of the present-day Burgenland remained the western border-zone of Hungary until 1920.

In the 17-18th centuries wealthy Catholic landowner-families, for example the Esterházys and Batthyánys dominated the region.

pffffffff..What?

this territory was part of the Hungarian Kingdom from 1000- 1526, after part of the Royal Hungary, after in the Habsburg Empire, but part of the Hungarian Kingdom, aftre Austria-Hungary, but in the Hungarian side.And Eszterházy is a hungarian noblefamily, not austrian. (Hungarian noblenames: Andrássy, Széchenyi, Báthory....)Eszterházy's built this Castle. And the Castle from Fraknó(in deutsh: Frochstein), Castle From Kismarton(Eisenstadt)...
