According to an old Hungarian legend, deep beneath Gellert Hill, located in Budapest, near the banks of the Danube, resides a secret kingdom lost in time. This story has been passed down through centuries, weaving whispers of magic, dwarfs, and a righteous king named Matthias.King Matthias, the Just, was a beloved king, known for his wisdom and brave heart. Every citizen in his kingdom knew that in times of injustice, King Matthias would come to their rescue disguised as a commoner. However, the most curious tales around him revolve around a dwarfs’ colony living under Gellert Hill.These were no ordinary dwarfs. These elusive beings were gifted blacksmiths, known for their excellent craftsmanship. Their work was beautiful beyond compare and they diligently labored underground, unseen by the human eye.One night, King Matthias, disguised as a commoner, came upon an old dwarf who was offering a pair of perfectly crafted boots that would fit the feet like a second skin. Intrigued, King Matthias decided to try them on. To his surprise, they were a perfect fit and comfortable beyond belief. King Matthias was so delighted, he decided to keep them. The dwarf, recognizing the king, revealed his true identity and the secret kingdom under Gellert Hill.The dwarf led Matthias into their realm; a radiant city of gold, glowing bright with the light of about thousands of gems and diamonds. King Matthias was so in awe of this underground beauty that he promised to keep their secret, asking only for their loyalty in return. In gratitude, the dwarfs promised to provide him with their exceptional craftsmanship.Since then, it is believed that the king’s military success was due to the remarkable weapons provided by these dwarfs. Today, while Gellert Hill is popularly known for the majestic view it offers of Budapest, the whispers of the magical tales reminding us of a hidden world beneath, keep the legend alive.
