The Grassalkovich Palace, originally an aristocratic estate, served as the summer residence of Franz Josef and Empress Elisabeth, linking the town to the Habsburg world and to Budapest and Austria. A war council held here during the 1848-49 revolution raised the idea of dethroning the Habsburgs. The town later hosted an ASEM foreign ministers' meeting connecting it to governments across Europe and Asia.
