Description:
Restoration, renewal and revitalisation of an important, coherent ensemble in the linear village Magyarpolány. In the 18th century Magyarpolány has became a domain of the nearby abbey of Zirc, which is the reason why we can find important masterpieces of 18th century baroque fine art such as the sculptures of the Calvary or the paintings of the church. But the village is proud of its beautiful streetscape of the early 20th century houses on Petöfi street.
