Írott-kő or Geschriebenstein is the highest mountain of the Kőszeg Mountains range, located on the border between Austria and Hungary. Its height is 884 m according to Austrian sources, whereas Hungarian references mostly mention 883 m. It is the highest mountain of Western Hungary (Transdanubia) and of Burgenland. Its former names were ''Fenyőhegy'' and ''Szálkő''. Its present name (''Írottkő'' in Hungarian, ''Geschriebenstein'' in German) can be translated as ''written stone'' and is assumably derived from border stones with inscriptions between the properties of the Batthyány and Esterházy families. On the summit, there is an observation tower built in 1913. This stands exactly on the border between Austria and Hungary. Since December 2007 the Austrian–Hungarian border can be crossed without formalities, because Hungary has joined the Schengen Agreement. Closest towns on the Austrian side are Rechnitz and Lockenhaus. On the Hungarian side the closest municipality is Velem and the closest town is Kőszeg. ==External links == *(Naturpark Geschriebenstein-Írottkő ) *(Írottkő Nature Park Information Centre ) * (Awarded "EDEN - European Destinations of Excellence" non traditional tourist destination 2009 ) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Írott-kő」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
