Anna Spring (Anna-liget)
Békés
Anna-liget is a spacious, well-maintained park located in Békés, Hungary, known for its historical and natural significance. At its heart stands the Csáky Manor, a late Baroque building with classicist influences, built in 1908 by master builder János Bányász. The manor was commissioned by Csáky Albin, a notable Hungarian education minister and politician, and his wife Bolza Anna, whose family originally owned the land. The park began its development in the early 19th century under Count József Bolza and his wife, evolving from a simple summerhouse to a representative manor and landscaped park. Today, the manor serves as the headquarters of the Körös–Maros National Park Directorate, which oversees the protection of the region's natural environment. The park is also home to the Körösvölgyi Animal Park, making it a popular destination for visitors interested in both cultural heritage and nature. The combination of architectural elegance, historical background, and natural surroundings makes Anna-liget a unique site in the Southern Great Plain region of Hungary.

Histoire
The origins of Anna-liget trace back to the early 19th century when Count József Bolza and his wife Batthyány Anna began planting the wooded park.
Initially, a simple summerhouse stood on the site, documented in maps from 1801–1811.
The current Csáky Manor was constructed in 1908, replacing the summerhouse, under the direction of Csáky Albin and his wife Bolza Anna.
The manor was designed by János Bányász in a late Baroque style with classicist elements.
In 1994, the building became the headquarters of the Körös–Maros National Park Directorate, linking its history closely with nature conservation.
Since then, the manor and park have been restored and protected as cultural and natural heritage sites.
