The Fisherman’s Bastion — another confection constructed for the 1896 millennial celebrations — reminds me of Disney’s castle. The pointy turrets are meant to resemble Magyar tents; there are seven in total, reflecting the number of Magyar tribes that settled in Hungary. It’s called Fisherman’s Bastion because in Medieval times, the fishermen were tasked with defending this spot along the ramparts, since their fish market sat just below, along the Danube.
