Beschreibungen/Notizen
In the beginning of the year 1837, the hunt started to catch Jóska Sobri, the famous Hungarian outlaw, and his gang. The then palatine ordered military forces to track them down and promised high reward for capturing them. The outlaw gang was hiding in Bakony Forest and had little chance against the soldiers. Not even Sobri and his closest fellow gang members could slip through the territory encircled by the authorities in Tolna County, close to Lápafő, on 17 February 1837. In the gunfight, Sobri has most probably died, but this has never been proven. He disappeared, and the myth was born in outlaw folklore, according to which he is alive even nowadays. Recently, a movie has been produced about his life, and there is also an adventure park in Bakony Forest named after him.
