If you would like to gain a heart-pounding experience, you should not miss Hungary’s scariest and most thrilling haunted places! The majority of them are abandoned and cannot be visited; however, some of them can be still discovered by the bravest ones. They have something in common – they all preserve our past.

“The Hungarian Chernobyl”

The Hungarian ghost town of Szentkirályszabadja, located in the vicinity of Lake Balaton, used to give a home to thousands of people in the past. Similarly to other small Hungarian settlements that served as a residence for the Soviet army, Szentkirályszabadja has also preserved some memories which tell us a lot about the daily life of its former residents.

The barracks were built in the 1960s and 1970s and were resided by Russian and Ukrainian soldiers and their families. In the region, we can find private houses, school, kindergarten, cinema, theatre, sports centre, post office, restaurants, bars, shops and even abattoir.

Szentkirályszabadja is also called „the Hungarian Chernobyl” that gave the home to thousands of people in the past and has become totally abandoned by now.
