Budaörs is a commuter town to the west from Budapest. Several large retail stores pay taxes to the local council, so much so that Budaörs is the richest town of Hungary. The history of the city reaches back to the 13th century. In 1921, the Battle of Budaörs was the last attempt to restore the Habsburg Empire. Budaörs was elevated to town status in 1986.

A commuter’s getaway

Just a short drive from the bustle of Budapest, Budaörs offers a subtle shift in rhythm for travelers who want urban convenience without the capital’s constant hum. Its proximity to the M1 motorway means you can swap a busy tram for a leisurely stroll along the town’s tree‑lined avenues, where local cafés serve espresso with a side of fresh Pastry, and the streets are peppered with small family‑run workshops. The town’s layout encourages a walkable discovery of public art installations and modest parks that feel like a breath of fresh air after a day of navigating Budapest’s tourist hotspots. It’s a place where a morning market visit can be paired with an easy bike ride into the city’s outskirts, making it an ideal base for those who value both connectivity and calm.

Beyond the town centre – the surrounding vineyards

While Budaörs itself is modest in size, it sits on the edge of a historic wine‑growing region that stretches into the hills south of the Danube. Small, family‑owned vineyards pepper the landscape, offering tastings that focus on indigenous grape varieties such as Furmint and Kadarka. These estates rarely feature in guidebooks, but they host seasonal harvest festivals where you can sample the wine alongside locally sourced cheese and sausage, often accompanied by folk musicians. Visiting during late summer provides a glimpse of the vines in full colour and a chance to learn about the traditional coopering methods still used to craft barrels, giving a deeper appreciation of Hungary’s viticultural heritage beyond the more famous Tokaj area.

Local festivals you won’t find on the main guidebooks

Budaörs maintains a calendar of community events that reflect its multicultural roots, from Croatian dance gatherings to German‑inspired beer gardens. One standout is the annual ‘Községnap’ celebration, a town‑day fair where residents set up stalls showcasing handcrafted ceramics, traditional embroidery, and home‑cooked dishes that blend Hungarian, German, and Croatian flavours. The event is hosted in the town square and includes a dance competition that encourages visitors to join in, offering an authentic immersion into the town’s communal spirit. Timing your visit to coincide with these gatherings provides a rare window into everyday life, far removed from the staged tourist spectacles typical of larger cities.

History

[edit] The first settlements of the area date from 3500 BC. Excavations near the Hosszúrét creek resulted in findings from the Bronze Age (1900 BC to 800 BC). Before the Romans, the Celtic Eraviscus tribe occupied the area for about 100 years. Several villas have been recovered from the Roman times around Kamaraerdő [ˈkɒmɒrɒɛrdøː]. Little is known of the early history of the settlement after the Hungarian conquest. The name originates from the name of one of the Kabar tribes that joined the Hungarians. The first written mention of Örs dates from 1236 when Béla IV, king of Hungary donated a church together with the St. Martin chapel to the Cistercians. Under the Turkish occupation during Ottoman rule the area was uninhabited and was resettled by Schwab peasants in the early 18th century by the countess Zsuzsanna Bercsényi. While at the end of the 18th century only 1143 peasants lived here, in 40 years the number tripled. World War I affected the town badly, and it was the scene of a short fight between Hungarian royalists and the government in the Battle of Budaörs on 23–24 October 1921. After World War II, it was at Budaörs where the Communist government begun forcing ethnic Germans to leave their homes. As of 2009[update], Budaörs had a population of 26,400.
