Narrative
Vác is a beautiful town on the left bank of the Danube River in Pest County in Hungary at the east gate of the Danube-Bend 35 km north from Budapest.
The settlement was established after the Hungarian Conquest (when the first Hungarians arrived at the Carpathian Basin in 896).
The first written record of Vác comes from 1074, from the almanac of the Niedersaxon city of Yburg, which refers to Vác as "Watzenburg".
