Шопрон - милейший городок на венгерско-австрийской границе

Вот уже почти неделю нахожусь тут по делам. Городок приятный во всех отношениях...
Здесь 20 лет назад пробили перввую брешь в железном занавесе.
"On 19 August 1989, several thousand people arranged to get together near the Hungarian town of Sopron, along the Austrian border, for a pan-European picnic. The event was organised by Hungary’s democratic opposition parties and Otto von Habsburg’s pan-European movement, and was sanctioned by the Hungarian authorities, who actually opened the border for three hours for the occasion. The picnic proved a turning point in history that eventually led to the raising of the Iron Curtain."
