The Festetics mansion in Dég was built in Classicist style between 1810 and 1815 for Count Antal Festetics de Tolna (1764-1853), imperial and royal chamberlain. The architect was the famous Mihaly Pollack. The mansion has a large English landscape garden (the same size as the Central Park), with on the island of the lake the so called 'Dutch House'.
