Nagyrécse
Nagyrécse is situated in the north-east of Nagykanizsa, on a hilly area next to the Bakónaki stream. The village's unique geography has played a significant role in shaping its history and development. The hilly terrain, with its gentle slopes and scenic vistas, has made it an attractive destination for settlers and travelers alike. The first written record of the village dates back to 1264. In the Middle Ages it was inhabited by serfs. During the Turkish occupation the village was depopulated and then repopulated. For centuries, the village's life was dominated by crop and livestock farming. The Bakónaki stream, which flows gently through the heart of the village, has provided a reliable source of water for agriculture and industry, supporting the local economy for centuries. The village's strategic location has also made it an important hub for trade and commerce. Nestled in the rolling hills of the Zala county, Nagyrécse has served as a key stopping point for merchants and travelers moving goods between the Great Hungarian Plain and the Adriatic coast. This has brought a rich cultural heritage to the area, with influences from both Eastern and Western Europe evident in the village's architecture, cuisine, and traditions. Despite its small size, Nagyrécse has a rich cultural scene, with numerous festivals and events taking place throughout the year. The village is home to several historic landmarks, including the 18th-century Roman Catholic Church, which boasts stunning Baroque architecture and a tranquil atmosphere. Other attractions include the Millennium Castle Park and the Inkey Castle, which is currently being renovated.
