When you first see the elegant boulevards and avenues of the city, even knowing the long history, it is difficult to imagine it as the capital of the leader of the Huns Attila in the 5th century. The early Roman settlement served as an important bridge to the province of Dacia, and over the next 700 years the city prospered through a trade in gold and salt, which was taken over by the tribes of Hungarian nomads around 1138. History tells the typical story of the looting, total destruction and restoration of the city, followed by 200 years of Ottoman rule, which ended in 1686, when the Habsburg dynasty came to power. After the attempt to gain independence in 1849 failed, the city focused its efforts on the development of trade and industry.
A decisive moment in the history of modern Szeged came in the days of great flooding in 1879. Of the 5.5 thousand. only 265 survived. All of Europe participated in the restoration of the city, here found the embodiment of the idea of Baron Osman, who redesigned Paris, and samples for the design of the city were Brussels, Rome, Berlin and London.
