GYÖNGYÖS,
MAĎARSKO
Gyöngyös je druhá největší obec v župě Heves a současně centrum okresu Gyöngyös s přibližně 27 000 obyvateli. První písemná zmínka o městě pochází ze 13. století, nicméně podle posledních historických výzkumů existovalo osídlení této oblasti již v 9.- 10. století. Rozvoj osady nezlomilo ani rozdělení země na tři části a turecká nadvláda v 16. století.
Historie Gyöngyös se prolíná s vinohradnictvím a výrobou vína, které dodnes poskytuje obživu mnoha obyvatelům města i jeho okolí. Gyöngyös je centrem vinařské oblasti Mátra, která je druhou největší vinařskou oblastí v Maďarsku s největší rozlohou osídlení v horské oblasti.
Město na pomezí Velké nížiny a Severního středohoří je známé také jako brána do Mátry, i když v posledních letech aspiruje na to stát se hlavním městem Mátry. Ve správní oblasti Gyöngyös se nachází nejvyšší hora Maďarska Kékestető a nejvýše položené jezero v zemi Sástó. Mátra je jednou z nejoblíbenějších turistických destinací v zemi díky vybudované síti turistických stezek, dobrému ovzduší i kvalitnímu ubytování.
TÂRGU SECUIESC,
RUMUNSKO
Osada Târgu Secuiesc (maďarsky Kézdivásárhely) byla poprvé zmíněna v roce 1407 a prohlášena za město s právem trhu již v roce 1427 králem Zikmundem. Město mělo ve středověku významný cechovní průmysl. Jeho zvláštností je lichoběžníkový tvar hlavního náměstí, dříve tržiště, tvořený bránami dvorů Dnes je ve městě 70 dvorů, proto se také někdy nazývá městem cechů a dvorů. Městečku se ale také říkalo Paříž tří židlí.
Většina budov na hlavním náměstí byla postavena ve druhé polovině 19. století a na počátku 20. století.
Muzeum historie cechu László Incze sídlí v budově bývalé radnice, postavené v roce 1857.
ŁODYGOWICE,
POLSKO
Obec Lodygowice se nachází v jižním Polsku a má více než 14 000 obyvatel. Vesnička v malebném prostředí leží přímo u jezera Zywiecki. Díky dobře rozvinuté horské silniční síti je obec velmi snadno dostupná turisty. V obci je mnoho památek, včetně novogotického zámku s parkem nebo římskokatolického dřevěného kostela postaveného v letech 1631-1634. Obec také proslavila folklorní skupina, která si říká Magurzanie, a součástí které funguje i pěvecký sbor Magurzanki, složená z 50 mladých lidí, kteří ve svém programu vystupují s lidovými tanci a písněmi z různých oblastí Polska. Během své kariéry již skupina vystoupila na 550 tanečních koncertech a na asi 720 koncertech kapely v mnoha evropských zemích.
LUČENEC,
SLOVENSKO
Město Lučenec (maďrsky LOSONC) je kulturním a hospodářským centrem regionu Novohrad a geografickým střediskem jižní části středního Slovenska, o kterém jsou dochovány první písemné zmínky již z roku 1247. Díky svému rozvoji v 19. století obklopují ulici T.G. Masaryka krásné secesní budovy měšťanských domů. Nachází se zde také řada bankovních institucí, obchodních domů a Novohradská knihovna. Srdcem historického jádra města je Kubínyiho náměstí, které vzniklo pravděpodobně ve středověku na místě staré tržnice. Naleznete zde také historickou budovu Vigadó, dva kostely a Novohradské muzeum a galerii, stejně tak historickou radnici. Jednou z nejvyhledávanějších a nejpůsobivějších staveb města je zrekonstruovaná synagoga.
K posezení a odpočinku láká přírodní park vbudovaný ve francouzském, anglickém a krajinářském stylu, který patří k nejkrásnějším na Slovensku.
Všichni turisté jsou srdečně zváni k návštěvě!

Leaders of civil society organisations from four cities met in Gyöngyös in the framework of the Citizens for Towns project, 09-11 August 2024. At the Hungarian meeting, delegations from Gyöngyös, Targu Secuiesc (Transylvania, Romania), Lodygowice (Poland) and Lucenec (Slovakia) took part in a full-day training session, in addition to cultural and gastronomic programmes. The programme started with a city quiz on Friday, during which foreign visitors had to answer questions about the city in a playful way, and ended with dinner and wine tasting. On Saturday, the programme continued with a full day of training. With the help of trainers Katalin Fekete and Katalin Sabján, the present members of national and foreign NGOs took part in a one-day training in a playful way. The aim of the programme was to enable the members of the delegations to get to know each other better and to brainstorm and create a development strategy together. During the morning, the towns were organised into teams, and in the afternoon, with the help of the trainers, the training continued in mixed teams, with the organisers occasionally adding team games. In the programme, the trainers focused primarily on what can be achieved by the civil society organisations of a city without any special financial investment, simply by joining forces. During the programme, it soon became clear that the protection of the environment and the improvement and beautification of their immediate surroundings was a priority for the civic community. By the end of the day, they had created a joint project repository of ideas for improvement that they had developed together. The programme ended with a gala performance by the Tomory Gábor Folk Dance School, where members of the delegations themselves joined the dance on stage at the end of the evening.
