Százhalombatta is an industrial town on the right bank of the Danube, south of Budapest, offering a unique blend of prehistoric heritage and modern energy production. Its name translates to 'Hundred Mounds,' referring to the vast Iron Age burial field belonging to the Hallstatt culture, dating back to the 7th-6th centuries BC. The town is home to Hungary's first Archaeological Park, where visitors can walk among reconstructed Bronze and Iron Age dwellings and explore an excavated tumulus burial mound. Modern Százhalombatta is a cornerstone of the Hungarian economy, hosting the Danube Refinery (MOL), the largest in the country, and the Dunamenti Power Plant, a key electricity provider. Despite its industrial significance, the town maintains a high standard of living with modern public spaces and cultural institutions. It is also famous for hosting the annual Summerfest International Folklore Festival, which brings dance troupes from around the globe to the shores of the Danube.
