Győr-Moson-Sopron County, Administrative county in northwestern Hungary.

The region spans across 4,089 square kilometers, featuring plains, hills, and rivers with the Danube flowing through its northern territories.

The county formed in 1950 through the unification of separate territories: Győr-Moson and Sopron, following the post-World War II administrative reforms.

The Pannonhalma Abbey, established in 969, maintains a collection of 300,000 volumes in its library, preserving medieval Hungarian documents.

The capital city Győr connects to Vienna in one hour and Budapest in ninety minutes through regular train and bus services.

The Szigetköz area, situated between Danube channels, contains 500 small islands with numerous fishing villages and waterfowl habitats.
