Csernus Lukács - Triff Zsigmond: The Cemeteries of Budapest - Our Budapest (Budapest, 1999)
Jacobin movement, executed in 1795. Discovered in the Víziváros Cemetery, their remains were placed here in 1960 after a series of vicissitudes. Having passed by this memorial, you will see the burial ground of the red guardists killed in the revolution of 1956 and, behind that, the section of honour in which Soviet soldiers killed in World War II are buried. Visitors with enough time and energy can proceed to see the graves of those buried further away from the route described above. Walking by the wall of the cemetery on the right, you can see, at the corner of Salgótarjáni út, the mausoleum, built in the style of late Romanticism to plans by Miklós Ybl, of Ábrahám Ganz, iron manufacturer and founder of Hungarian heavy industry. Next to this stands the neo-Classical monument of professor János Balassa, surgeon, with a group of statues by József Engel topping it. Walking towards the centre of the cemetery from here, there is, in Section 24, the grave of Pál Ignotus, editor of the literary magazine Nyugat, ornamented with a relief by István Martsa; the grave of the writer Dezső Szabó is also here (his ashes were brought here from his temporary grave in Rákóczi tér in 1949 with the intention of frustrating his wish to be buried on Gellért Hill, expressed in his last will). Another writer Antal Szerb and the opera singer Mária Basilides are also buried here. Approaching the rear division of the cemetery, you can see, in Section 32, a statue by sculptor and architect Géza Maróti, decorating his own grave; in Section 46 are the resting places of mechanical engineer and inventor Kálmán Kandó, under a monument designed by Gyula Wälder, and opera singer Endre Rosier, decorated with a relief by Lajos Berán. His father-in-law Károly Morgenroth, who became famous in the role of Jancsi the Clown, was once buried in the same grave. This is where the tomb of the transatlantic pilot György Endresz can also be found (Section 47). Returning to the wall of the cemetery, we can pay homage to another dynasty of eminent medical practitioners - paediatricians János Bókái, Sr and János Bókay, Jr and the youngest János Bókay, physician, lie buried together with other members of their family under a five-metre-tall granite obelisk. Not far from here, also along the wall, are buried the ashes of the poet and Piarist provost Sándor Sík in the vault of the Piarist order. Mechanical engineer and general manager of Ganz Factory András Mechwart rests under a statue by Ede Teles; the grave of poet and writer Pál Gyulai is also here. Along the path crossing the main promenade behind the funeral parlour of rest rises a statue, by Zsigmond 30
