A Mug and You - on Kossuth Street

Take a stroll with us along Kossuth Street, then marvel at the evening city lights from the window of Veszprém's "skyscraper" FROM THE WINDOW OF THE OLDEST RESIDENT!

We will visit the tower block's first and most loyal resident, the former operations manager of the building, as no one knows more about the "tower" than he does. The oldest apartment is interesting not only because of its fantastic VIEW, but also because it allows visitors to see the original TECHNICAL SOLUTIONS.

The more times you walk down Kossuth Street, the more likely you are to feel that, despite the major street renovations at the end of the 1960s and the appearance of the "modern city center," , people walk here just like they did a hundred years ago. Despite the brutal attack against it, Kossuth Street has retained its mature character over the centuries.

Of course, some of its emblematic buildings have disappeared (Balaton dessert shop with its pleasant garden seating, legendary Hungaria Söröző - pub, or the central Húsbolt - meat store), which we can now only point to as empty spaces on our map. Fortunately, thanks to Tizen1 Kávézó, we have a cup of tea to accompany us on our journey, during which we will tell youthe history of the classic houses still standing in the middle of the left side, mention the transformed houses, and finally, from the window of one of the apartments on the tenth floor, we will take in the city's iconic buildings from a bird's eye view, while gaining insight into the everyday life of the condominium.
