Build by Schulek in 1902, The Fisherman's Bastion in Budapest, is so named because this stretch of Buda's defensive walls was traditionally guarded and maintained by the guild of fishermen. It consists of a meringue-pie arrangement of neo-Romanesque arcades, and towers topped with pinnacled turrets, made out of white stone. Seven towers to symbolize the different Magyar tribes that settled this area and a middle statue of King Saint Stephen who converted the tribes to Christianity and hence received the right to populate these lands around the 10th century.
