The grave of József Chalupeczky

József Chalupeczky's grandmother was a midwife in Ógyalla, and his grandfather told stories about Miklós Konkoly-Thege. That is why he may have been attracted to the history of the settlement, he noted down many interesting facts, collected postcards, and was a local government representative in the 1990s. He also dealt with the idea of creating a regional house, and actively took part in the renovation of the Konkoly Chapel. He also dealt with the cleaning of old church documents (which are probably lost by now). He also conducted various research among the documents. He enjoyed telling young people (e.g. students of the architecture school) about the buildings and heritage of Ógyalla. Today's older generation enjoys remembering Uncle Józsi, or as the locals called him, Uncle Pubi. He once told us that if we see a paper or document blown by the wind, we should look at it, because we cannot know whether it has local historical significance. When a visitor once arrived, he told me that the observatory should not have been bulldozed (that is why only the right-hand part is original). With a blueprint in his hand, he explained that it stood on piles, stable. His legacy is cared for by Ernő Veres and his family. With the help of Ch. József, a pedagogical thesis and some smaller coursework were written (e.g. The Children's World of a Village - noted by Árpád Bagin). Photocopies were also made of his manuscripts, which can be found in private archives, but also in the archives of the Ethnological Center in Komárom.
