Tata, Historical town in Komárom-Esztergom County, Hungary
The Renaissance castle of Tata stands next to a 220-hectare artificial lake, creating a central point in this northwestern Hungarian settlement of 23,881 residents.
The fortress, first documented in 1221, endured fifteen sieges during the Hungarian-Ottoman wars between 1526 and 1685, marking its role in defending Christian territories.
The annual Tatai Patara festival brings hundreds of historical reenactors to the castle grounds, recreating the notable siege of May 23, 1597.
The Kuny Domonkos Museum, housed within Tata Castle, presents local artifacts and exhibitions about the region's past through multiple historical periods.
From November to March, the Old Lake transforms into a winter sanctuary for thousands of wild geese migrating from the Eurasian steppes.
