Margaret
Island is a 1.6 miles long island in the middle of the Danube
river, in central Budapest, Hungary. The island is mostly covered by landscaped
parks, and is a popular recreational area. Its medieval ruins are the reminders
of its importance in the Middle Ages as a religious center. The island spans
the area between the Margaret Bridge (south) and the Árpád Bridge (north).
Before the 14th century, the island was called Insula leporum (Island of
Rabbits). Today’s appearance has been developed through the connection of three
separate islands, the Festő (Painter), the Fürdő (Bath) and the Nyulak
(Rabbits), during the end of the 19th century, to control the flow of the
Danube river. Originally, the island was located at 102.5 meters above sea
level, but now it has been built up to 104.85 meters above sea level to control
possible flooding.
The thermal water on Margaret Island, known for its healing powers, was first brought to the surface in 1886. The 70°C/170°F warm, mineral rich, the natural water comes from the Sigmund spring (Zsigmond forrás) that rises from the deep beneath the island. The water, rich in sodium, calcium, magnesium, iron, hydro-carbonate and sulfate exerts its healing effects both, as the thermal water in the spa’s pools & baths and as drinking water.
A Green Gem of Budapest.
In late spring, the green meadow of the Margaret Island provides a peaceful hideaway from hectic Budapest downtown with large green areas, flowery gardens, old trees, and lots of entertainment. The island’s attractions include:
– Romantic walkways,
– Medieval ruins, a small zoo,
– Rose garden
– Two musical fountains,
– Historic water tower,
– Swimming pools,
– Water park,
– Playgrounds,
– Open air theater and cinema, and some
great clubs.
