The Mayor's Greetings
On behalf of the Local Government of Érsekcsanád, I am
delighted to welcome every visitor who visits our website surfing on the
internet. I hope that you can imagine the history of Érsekcsanád, the public
life, the events and the economical life with the help of the useful information
you can find here browsing our website.
Érsekcsanád is located near the main road No. 51 and it is 6
km north to Baja, close to the river Danube. The township shows the typical
features of Sárköz concerning both the farming and the cultural traditions. As
the result of the flood-plain farming and fishing it is natural for the families
of Csanád to have fish for lunch every week. The beautiful Sárköz-style costume
of the Bazsarózsa Folkdance Club has already been admired in several European
countries.
The cultural life of the village is really vital. The
visitors are welcome to take part in a number of small and great programs such
as the Fish Frying Festival, the Summer 's Day of Csanád, the Folklore Evening,
the Grape Harvest Procession and the Christmas Concert. The sport life is
basically determined by football but the equestrian tradition is significant as
well and we organize several horseback riding skill and coach-driving
championships every year.
The main public domain of Érsekcsanád is the Leisure Park
where groups of local friends and visitors from farther countries can meet, fry
and cook in a beautifully attended environment. The open-air programs are held
here, too. We deliberately and precisely decorate our village with flowers and
we have been successfully taking part in the
'For a Flowery Hungary' competition
for three years.
The most significant tourist attraction is the Veránka
Island, which is the nature conservation area of the Duna-Dráva National Park.
Many visitors were impressed by the flora and fauna of the flood-plain and the
dead-channels. Several hunters also visit Érsekcsanád since this area is an
integrated part of Gemenc and offers various wildlife to see and hunt. The
accommodation, which can be found in the island, is the property of the Local
Government of Bács-Kiskun County. It provides the opportunity of numerous
leisure activities for the visitors, such as boating, hiking, cycling and
fishing.
Our village has two twin cities. One of them is Kastl, in
Germany and the other one is Ballylanders, in Ireland. We entertain close
relationship with both of the townships and visit each other 's programs as often
as possible.
I wish a pleasant pastime to our virtual visitors. If the
information you have found here attracted your attention, you are welcome to
stop to get to know Érsekcsanád, to taste the fish dishes of Csanád and our
delicious strudel. We request the pleasure of meeting you.
