In the narrower sense, \u0150rvid\u00e9k means the Hungarian-speaking enclave around Oberwart (Fels\u0151\u0151r) and Unterwart (Als\u00f3\u0151r); in the broader sense it is the Hungarian name of the Austrian province of Burgenland.<\/p>\n

Here you will find the oldest building in present-day Austria in continuous use as a Protestant church, the Reformed church of Oberwart, as well as the Baroque shrines of the Esterh\u00e1zy family: the basilica of Frauenkirchen (Boldogasszony) and the Calvary of Eisenstadt (Kismarton) with the Bergkirche.<\/p>\n
