Residents of Szomolya will honor the heroes of 1956 with a solemn, silent ceremony this year. Participants will gather at the Heroes’ Memorial to listen to commemorative speeches, then lay wreaths and candles, bowing their heads in tribute to those who gave their lives for freedom and their country. The event invites everyone in the community to join in this quiet reflection.
