Hermit's place (Barátlakások)

In the eastern slope of Óvár, Greek Orthodox hermits hollowed out their cells, a chapel and a dinning room from the rocks in the 11th-14th century. This is the only hermit's place which is a relatively well-preserved in the Carpathian Basin and even in Central Europe. Its local name is Barátlakások (Friar habitations). Not far from here, you can find the Ciprián spring, previously called Russian fountain, which is the only spring of Tihany.
