Timeline
14:49
Grab a sweet treat and a coffee at Don Bosco Confectionery. The warm pastries and coffee are a gentle start before the walk.
15:34
Walk to the Kiscell Museum. The Baroque buildings and the surrounding grounds offer a quiet space to wait. The museum is open until 16:00 in winter, so you have time to pop inside if you wish, or simply enjoy the exterior architecture as the light begins to soften.
16:19
Head to the Trinity Statue. The sun sets toward the WSW, aligning perfectly with the statue from the museum grounds. Watch the last rays of light hit the memorial as the sky turns gold and then blue.
17:04
End the evening with a traditional meal at Kéhli Restaurant. It is open until midnight, offering a warm place to digest the day and the view.
Local tip
The walk between the museum and the statue is about 21 minutes. The sun sets early in January, so arrive with enough time to settle in. Kéhli Restaurant is open late, making it a safe bet for dinner after the dark falls.
