The grave of Pál Nagy and Boldizsár Renczés

Cemeteries, headstones, tombs

The grave contains the remains of Nagy Pál Szökefalvi, a history teacher and writer at the Oradea Academy, and the landowner Boldizsár Renczés. ; In the 19th century, several mills operated on the banks of the Little Danube. One of these was the Pozsonyeperjes water mill, which was built by Boldizsár Renczés (1863-1919) at the end of the 19th century. The Pozsonyeperjes mill house burned down around 1920, and the estate was later purchased by István Nagy, a manor forester, who converted the mill into a sawmill. The electricity generated from the energy of the water not only powered the sawmill's machines, but also provided energy for lighting the village's public buildings. ; Nagy Pál Szőkefalvi was born in Gyöngyös, Heves County, on April 18, 1788, and died in Pozsonyeperjes on December 18, 1859.
