    Great memento of the First Responsible Hungarian Government’s Minister President, who has been executed after the Hungarian’s Freedom Fight in 1848/49. In the middle of the city, next to the parliament on a small square. It’s good to check after sunset when the little red light is visible in it’s middle, simulating a candle.

    Batthyány's sanctuary lamp was revealed in 1926 and its design is great.

    Those who love liberty should appreciate the sacrifice Batthany made for his people, 170 years ago. The flame in the crimson lamp is both beautiful and symbolic of the first Prime Ministers' execution.

    Budapest, Batthyány-örökmécses (or Batthyány Lajos-örökmécses) monument standing in the V. district of Budapest, on the square formed by the intersection of Báthory utca and Hold utca. On October 6, 1849, Count Lajos Batthyány (1807–1849), Hungary's first prime minister in charge, was executed in this place - in the courtyard of the former New Building. Every Hungarian should know his life path.

    Near this small but precious square one can find Aulic utca (Aulich Street), where one of the scenes of Steven Spielberg's Munich was filmed.

    A neat quiet and small square, built as a memorial for first magyar prime minister, its a beautiful lantern surrounded by benches and mini gardens that gives a bit of colors during spring and summer, the buildings around are incredibly beautiful and even thought it is a very significative memorial, is just enjoyed by few old local people, neigborgs walking their dogs and few lost tourist looking for directions, which could make your experience calmer and relaxing...definetelly a place to visit while in Budapest
