One of the most famous buildings in Fertőboz, and perhaps in the whole area, is the Gloriette, a memorial hall built on the 186-metre-high hill of the Csúcsos vineyard. The word gloriette means a type of building, a pavilion or belvedere-like structure in a park. The Gloriette in Infieboz combines the characteristics of both types of building, as it is shaped like a pavilion, while its function is closer to that of a belvedere, the latter being more concerned with the view. What it does have: in clear weather, it can be used as far as Bratislava.
