Vérmező Park

Vérmező Park, Public park in Krisztinaváros, Budapest, Hungary.

Vérmező Park is a public green space in the Krisztinaváros area featuring flat terrain, wide pathways, and grassy lawns with scattered benches and seating areas. The space includes modern outdoor fitness equipment and multiple entrances that connect to surrounding streets.

The name Vérmező ("Blood Field") comes from the beheading of Ignác Martinovics and his companions on 20 May 1795, after the Jacobin conspiracy was crushed; this was not part of an independence war. The site had been a military glacis, kept unbuilt since 1752, and was later used as a meadow. A monument to the executed stands at the Széll Kálmán tér end of the park.

The name Vérmező means "Blood Field", referring to the beheading of Ignác Martinovics and his companions here on 20 May 1795; a monument to them stands at the Széll Kálmán tér end. Near the Mikó utca playground is István Kiss's 1979 sculpture Szitakötők (Dragonflies), and Budapest's first public statue of poet Mihály Babits, by László Marton, was erected in 2008, the 125th anniversary of his birth; Babits lived his last ten years in houses beside the field.

The park lies at the western foot of Castle Hill, bounded by Attila út, Krisztina körút and Mikó utca, with the Ördög-árok stream running beneath it. The ground is flat and the paths cross it in several directions, so the whole area can be walked through between those streets. The Vagon restaurant, an old green railway carriage, stands opposite the Southern Railway Station (Déli pályaudvar).

The park's trees are relatively young because the old grassy hollow was filled with rubble from the ruined Buda Castle after the Second World War and replanted from 1948, first the southern tip to Csorna Antal's plans, then the north and centre to Jancsó Antal's. A planned small pond in the middle was never built.
