Csány László szobra - Csány László szobra

László Csány (Zalacsány, 1790 - Pest, October 10, 1849) was a reformist politician, a martyr of the War of Independence of 1848-49. In the last government of Szemere, he received the Ministry of Transport. After the government resigned, he did not follow Kossuth and his associates and did not flee. He joined Görgey's army and was captured by the Arms of the World. He was tried in Pest on 26 September. He took responsibility for all his actions! The court sentenced him to death by rope. László Csány was executed four days later as Count Lajos Batthyány and the generals of Arad. The judgment was executed on October 10 in the wood market near the New Building in Pest. Besides Lajos Batthyány, he was the highest-ranking civilian leader executed by the emperors. One of the statues is a side figure of a 48-year-old soldier in the assault, with a family patron saint behind him. The other is a man lifting a stone. What is interesting about the latter is that it stood before Parliament on 1 May 1919 as a symbol of work.
