Point of interest - Fertőrákos - Pan-European Picnic Memorial
At the site of the Pan-European Picnic Memorial and Visitors' Centre, a pivotal and fateful event in European history took place: in 1989, hundreds of GDR citizens broke through the "Iron Curtain", accelerating the reunification of a divided Europe.
The Memorial and Visitor Centre is located 5 km from Sopronkőhida, directly on the border, and was established by the Tanulmány Forestry Ltd. in cooperation with the Pan-European Picnic '89 Foundation. Its central elements are the sculptural composition "Breakthrough" by Miklós Melocco and the Pan-European Picnic Visitor Centre, inaugurated in August 2019, on the 30th anniversary of the breakthrough. The Memorial was designated a European Heritage Site in 2015 as the site of a seminal event in European history.
