The Municipality of Nagymaros has signed a cooperation agreement with the Danube Bend Environmental Association to protect the region. The partnership aims to preserve local natural assets and develop sustainable tourism in the Danube Bend.
A 10.5 cm German fragmentation grenade from WWII was discovered near the Hunyadi promenade due to low water levels in the Danube. Police cordoned off the area until bomb disposal experts arrived and successfully removed the dangerous explosive device.
Nagymaros is a town in Pest County, located on the left bank of the Danube, opposite the Visegrád citadel. Historically, it was an important settlement of the medieval Hungarian kings and received town rights in 1324 from Charles Robert. The town is famous for its scenic location in the Danube Bend and its proximity to the Börzsöny mountains. During the 20th century, it became known internationally due to the Gabčíkovo-Nagymaros Dams project, which led to significant environmental protests. Today, it is a popular tourist destination, offering hiking trails and ferry connections to Visegrád. The town's architecture is dominated by the medieval Church of the Holy Cross, originally built in the 14th century. Nagymaros maintains its small-town charm and serves as a gateway to the Duna-Ipoly National Park.
The most pleasant time to visit is Jun–Aug.
