Along the northern section, the row of buildings is interrupted by the recently renovated Országzászló Square, offering a pleasant resting spot for passersby.

Although the square is noteworthy in its own right, we still recommend taking a seat beneath a shady tree so we could get an insight in the details of this large-scale urban development and uncover its driving forces. In the 1930s, ambitious, high-standard urban planning took place in Székesfehérvár. During this period of renewal, the city was led by Emil G. Csitáry. During his term of office, Székesfehérvár rose from a gray provincial town to the forefront of Hungary's regional cities. It was a fortunate era, as in the spirit of the 900th anniversary of King Saint Stephen's death, the city received the necessary financial and intellectual backing for its developments. However, without the mayor’s ingenuity and consistent work, these major projects could never have been realised. Thanks to the talented professionals working under his leadership, a new city was born, shaping the lovable character of the downtown area that visitors can admire even today.
