Fisherman's Bastion 渔人堡

Fisherman's Bastion

The Halászbástya or Fisherman's Bastion is a terrace in neo-Gothic and neo-Romanesque style situated on the Buda bank of the Danube, on the Castle hill in Budapest, around Matthias Church. It was designed and built between 1895 and 1902 on the plans of Frigyes Schulek. Between 1947–48, the son of Frigyes Schulek, János Schulek, conducted the other restoration project after its near destruction during World War II.

Its seven towers represent the seven Magyar tribes that settled in the Carpathian Basin in 896.  The Bastion takes its name from the guild of fishermen that was responsible for defending this stretch of the city walls in the Middle Ages. It is a viewing terrace, with many stairs and walking paths.

A bronze statue of Stephen I of Hungary mounted on a horse, erected in 1906, can be seen between the Bastion and the Matthias Church. The pedestal was made by Alajos Stróbl, based on the plans of Frigyes Schulek, in Neo-Romanesque style, with episodes illustrating the King's life.

渔人堡（Halászbástya）是一个新哥特式和新罗曼风格的观景台，位于匈牙利首都布达佩斯布达一侧多瑙河河畔的城堡山，邻近马加什教堂。它修建于1895年到1902年之间，设计师是弗里杰·舒勒克（Frigyes Schulek）。第二次世界大战期间，渔人堡近乎毁灭。1947年至1948年之间，弗里杰·舒勒克的儿子亚诺什·舒勒克负责了修复工程。

从塔和观景台，可以看到多瑙河、玛格丽特岛、东面的佩斯，以及盖勒特丘陵（Gellért Hill）的全景。

七座塔代表七个马扎尔人部落在896年定居喀尔巴阡盆地.

渔人堡得名于渔民行会，他们在中世纪负责守卫这一段城墙。这是一个观景台，有许多阶梯和人行步道。

伊什特万一世的骑马铜像立于1906年，位于渔人堡和马加什教堂之间。底座是奥洛约什·施特罗布尔（Alajos Stróbl）的作品，在弗里杰·舒勒克规划的基础上改进，为新罗曼式风格，表现国王的生活插曲。
