Memorial plaque of Count János Esterházy

The fate of János Esterházy is a tragic symbol of the 20th century, which was a loss for Hungarians, and it is also a symbol of the fate of Central Europe in the 20th century, which sought refuge in God and human freedom, in national loyalty and in the interdependence between nations. In 2017, the Hungarians of the Highlands commemorated the 60th anniversary of his death. The Hungarians of Nagymegyer also joined this series of commemorations, when on October 21, 2017, a memorial plaque was unveiled on the outer wall of the St. Nicholas Church, organized by the local organization of the Csemadok and the Roman Catholic parish. ; Count János Esterházy also visited Nagymegyer. At the people's meeting held in the village on May 6, 1934, he emphasized that the National Christian Socialist Party had always participated in the political struggle only by respecting the laws of the state, and that it intended to fight for the rights of the Hungarian national minority within the framework of the law in the future. However, this cannot mean that the party would turn a blind eye to the grievances against the Hungarian people. “We, who are law-abiding - emphasized Esterházy - always point out our grievances, because this is the prerequisite and path to healing.” However, many people consciously misinterpret the self-defense struggle of the Hungarian national minority in order to discredit the Hungarian parties. ; "Our political opponents accuse us of irredentism and subversion, so to speak. These malicious accusations leave us indifferent, because we Christian Socialists have not deviated from the path of the law for fourteen years," explained the national president of the National Christian Socialist Party in his speech in Nagymegyer.
