The Fertő-Hanság National Park lies in the north-western part of Hungary. Its predecessor was the Fertő-tó National Park, which was created in 1991 by the reorganisation of the Fertő-tó Landscape Protection Area, and received its present name in 1994 when the Hanság Landscape Protection Area was added to it.
On 24 April 1994, the opening ceremony was held jointly with the national park in the neighbouring Austrian territory. The international recognition of Lake Fertő is demonstrated by the fact that it was declared a Biosphere Reserve in 1979 and since 1989 it has been included in the list of internationally important wild waters of the Ramsar Convention.
