헝가리 부다페스트 야경 포인트 중 한곳

어부의 요새

마차슈 성당과 어부의 요새는 붙어 있어서 함께 볼 수 있고

유람선으로 가까이서 하나씩 야경을 보았다면 어부의 요새로 가서

헝가리의 전체적인 야경을 구경해보자

차로도 가까히 올라갈 수 있으면서 야경 포인트로도 좋다

어부의 요새(헝가리어: Halászbástya, 영어: Fisherman's Bastion)는 헝가리 부다페스트 마차슈 성당 옆에 있는 네오 고딕 네오 로마네스크 스타일의 테라스이다.

The Halászbástya Hungarian pronunciation: [ˈhɒlaːzbaːʃcɒ] or Fisherman's Bastion is a terrace in neo-Gothic and neo-Romanesque style situated on the Buda bank of the Danube, on the Castle hill in Budapest, around Matthias Church. It was designed and built between 1895 and 1902 on the plans of Frigyes Schulek. Construction of the bastion destabilised the foundations of the neighbouring 13th century Dominican Church which had to be pulled down.[1] Between 1947–48, the son of Frigyes Schulek, János Schulek, conducted the other restoration project after its near destruction during World War II.

From the towers and the terrace a panoramic view exists of Danube, Margaret Island, Pest to the east and the Gellért Hill.

Its seven towers represent the seven Magyar tribes that settled in the Carpathian Basin in 896.

The Bastion takes its name from the guild of fishermen that was responsible for defending this stretch of the city walls in the Middle Ages. It is a viewing terrace, with many stairs and walking paths.

A bronze statue of Stephen I of Hungary mounted on a horse, erected in 1906, can be seen between the Bastion and the Matthias Church. The pedestal was made by Alajos Stróbl, based on the plans of Frigyes Schulek, in Neo-Romanesque style, with episodes illustrating the King's life.
