Hollókő folk village Hungary 4K
Hollókő is a Palóc ethnographic village in Hungary and a UNESCO World Heritage Site. Its name means Raven-stone in Hungarian.
The village is located in Nógrád county, approximately 91.1 kilometres northeast from Budapest, the capital of Hungary. It lies in a valley of Cserhát Mountains, surrounded by low peaks. The natural environment is protected.
In the middle of the 13th century, in the aftermath of the Mongol invasion, construction of Hollókő castle first began as a means to protect the area against future attacks. At this time, the area around Hollókő was held by the Kacsics noble clan. The castle was first mentioned in records in 1310.[1] The original village was built just below the castle walls. The Ottomans captured the castle in 1552 and for the next 150 years, control alternated between Ottoman and Hungarian forces. At the end of the Ottoman era (1683) the castle and the village were finally abandoned and the present village grew up below.[2] Many of the existing houses were first built around this time. The houses, which contain wood in their structure, have had to be rebuilt many times throughout the years due to periodic fires, the last being in 1909. In 1987, the village, castle ruins, and surrounding area were inscribed as a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

HOLLOKO - THE LIVING VILLAGE / short film
HOLLOKO is a Paloc ethnographic village in Hungary/Europe, part of the WORLD HERITAGE. It's name means 'RAVEN STONE' in Hungarian. The village considered the MOST photographed village in Hungary, located approximately 57 miles from Budapest, the capital of Hungary. This remarkable place has traditionally been in habited by PALOC people. PALOC speak an old dialect of Hungarian and have preserved their characteristic architecture and their fold costumes. Recognition of the cultural significance of the settlement was given in 1987 when Holloko was the first village in the WORLD to be added to UNESCO's world Heritage List. The village, which lies in a small valley, has burned down several times ( the last time was back in 1909 ) but each time the inhabitants rebuilt their houses in almost the same shape and forms. Of the nearly 60 houses around the originally 14 century wooden-towered church a museum village has been made. Several of the buildings, some of which have traditional carved wooden porticoes, serve some kind of public function. On traditional holidays, notably at Easter and Corpus Christi, the villagers wear their local folk custumes and there are various festivities and activities.

Hollókő Magyarország egyetlen faluja, amely az UNESCO világörökségi listán szerepel, és így világszerte ismert. A Világörökség Bizottság 1987-ben a magyarországi várományos helyszínek közül Budapest mellett elsőként a Nógrád megyei palóc falut, Hollókőt vette fel a Világörökségi Listára. A legfontosabb feltételnek, azaz az egyedi és egyetemes jelentőségnek Hollókő azzal tesz eleget, hogy a 17-18. században kialakított falu a hagyományos településformáját, a tradicionális építészet és a 20. századot megelőző falusi élet páratlan példája, melyet sikerült eredeti állapotában megőrizni. Hollókő szelíd és harmonikus szimbiózisban fejlődött a természettel és napjainkra sem vált Szabadtéri Múzeummá: mindmáig élő, lakott település. Hagyományőrző lakói az épületek nagy részét jelenleg is rendeltetésszerűen használják. Kiss József volt az a műemlékvédő építész, aki kezdeményezte Hollókő azon belül is Ófalu műemlékké nyilvánítását.

Travel Greece - Exploring the Countryside Village of Holloko
Take a tour of Hungarian Village of Holloko in Holloko, Greece -- part of the World's Greatest Attractions travel video series by GeoBeats.
The village of Holloko is tucked away in the countryside, but is an important site for old Hungarian folk culture.
It is a quiet town, and could be called quaint, but it is a key piece of heritage for the people of this country.
Colorful and beautifully-crafted wooden structures and buildings can be seen throughout Holloko.
The entire population follows the traditions, dress, and language of Hungary's past.
The classic peasant architecture of the residences in this isolated village further its testament as an established Hungarian community.
Near the edge of town is its prime attraction, the ruined 14th century castle, once the protecting force of the village.

Visegrád castle | Hungary #4
A visit to Visegrád castle. This imposing ruin towers high above a bend in the Danube, providing spectacular views in all directions. The castle and town of Visegrád have played an important role in the history of Hungary. King Charles I (d. 1342) made it the kingdom's capital in 1325 until the royal seat was moved back to Buda in the early fifteenth century.
