Nagykanizsa, Administrative center in Zala County, Hungary
The city extends over 148 square kilometers along the Principális-csatorna canal, connecting the Zala and Mura rivers in southwestern Hungary.
The fortified settlement, established in 1300, remained under Turkish control from the early 1600s until 1690, serving as a strategic defense point.
The parish church, constructed in 1760, incorporates stones from a former mosque, representing the transformation of religious architecture through centuries.
Modern Nagykanizsa functions as a transportation hub with multiple rail and road connections, facilitating travel between major Hungarian cities.
The surrounding terrain features ancient wooden pile roads that traverse marshy areas, dating back to the medieval period of regional development.
