Geocache Description:

A micro in Nagyharsány, one of the hosts of "Ördögkatlan" festival in August.

Nagyharsány is situated on the southern slope of Szársomlyó Hill.
The most striking feature of Nagyharsány is the bare, "Devil ploughed" - Szársomlyó Hill, which rises behind the village to a height of 442 metres above sea level. It is a nature conservation area managed by the Danube-Dráva National Park. On the western side of the hill there is a working quarry.Archive data first mention Nagyharsány in 1223, as the road “running to the Monday fair”. Nagyharsány was located at a venue important for trade; this is one of the reasons for the development of the village in the Árpád Era and later. This was the site of the victorious battle led by Charles of Lotharingia on 12 August 1687, a watershed event in the process leading to the expulsion of the Turks. The battle is often called the 2nd Battle of Mohács.

The Protestant Church of Nagyharsány (a national monument ) with its painted walls dates back to 13th century. Its Baroque shape was formed in 1782; the tower was erected in 1900. The churchyard of the church is home to the statue of Mihály Sztárai. In the second half of September each year, one of the concerts of the European Festival of Convival Song is organised here.
