This is how space jump is possible to the Hungary of 1910 – Photos

The name of Imre Dlusztus is not unknown in the media or even in the world of wine, but now, alfahir.hu interviewed him about MiniHungary Model Park, which was opened in March this year. Even if the restoration of historic Hungary is not simple in practice, thanks to the work of a few years, we can imagine how it would be to travel in a great, prosperous and imposing country again.

The owner and operator of the park is Bornemzet Kft., which is managed by Imre Dlusztus, who previously imagined a “village of history”, in which they would make historical buildings habitable and a spectacular park, in the framework of an open air museum. Finally, it would be so expensive that it wasn’t be realized, but he didn’t give up his dream and transformed it into a “model-country”.

They won the application needed to finance in 2009, the work began this time to create the miniatures of several typical buildings of the historical Hungary in 1910. As alfahir.hu knows, they chose this year because a comprehensive, thorough census was conducted by the king and emperor Franz Joseph in that year, so there are lots of data. After the   millennium developments, Hungary had height of his powers, so it’s a truly worthy moment to be immortalized.

The works took place over many years; the park could opened in a two-hectare area in Morahalom this March. There are some weaknesses yet, such as shady places, more aesthetic fence, more elaborate description would be needed, but these are just small things.

The models can be seen, apart from one exception, in a 1:25 ratio, so we can compare the impressive churches, fortresses, castles and other monuments without a long travel. It’s also a good program for school classes, since they can get know the buildings of the Reformed College of Debrecen, the Festetics Palace, the Gyulafehervar Cathedral, the Miko Castle in Csikszereda, the Sopron Fire Tower, the town halls of Szabadka and Arad, the Eger Castle or the Parliament in an afternoon. The latter one itself cost HUF 40 million and the half-year work of 40 men.
