There are three neighbouring Swabian villages and one

You are Swabian town – Császártöltés, Érsekhalma, Nemesnádud-
var and Hajós – in one of the most beautiful wine regions
of our country, in the southern part of the Great Plain. Th e
where you people who live here are proud of their Swabian origins;
their ancestors arrived in the area during the 18th century,
from the regions of today’s southern Germany. Th e streets
need to be! and the houses of the friendly places bear the hallmarks

of Swabian architectural culture. The Swabian Corner has
been an inhabited area for a very long time, as proved by
The Swabian side of life the archaeological finds that come to the surface from the

depths of the earth. In the area of Érsekhalma, we can still
find the remains of a three-thousand-year-old Bronze Age

earthen castle and a medieval cave system carved into the
loess wall.
It is worth visiting the cosy cellar rows of the Swabian
Corner. The cellar village, which is unique in Europe, can

be visited in Hajós, and also the cellars of Császártöltés

and Nemesnádudvar offer visitors a special experience.

The Cabernet Wine Tourism Visitor Centre is the best

starting place for getting to know the area, especially the
Cellar Village in Hajós. Next to the local history exhibition,
visitors can enjoy the café, taste wines, and buy handicraft
products.

The Swabian Corner is not only worth visiting because
of the wines: we should plan a holiday for several days to
enjoy its gastronomic values and the ever-expanding op-

portunities for active tourism. The route of the National
Blue Trail passes through here, and cyclists and rowing
enthusiasts will have a great time here. For those taking a
river trip on the Vajas Channel and the Dunavölgyi Main
Channel, it is strongly recommended visiting the Water
Tourism Centre in Dusnok and the folklore house in Sü-
kösd, which presents this region.
