Herend

Herend (German: Herrendorf) is a small town in Hungary (Europe), near the city of Veszprém.

After the Ottoman Turkish administration of Hungary, the then-village was largely emptied, but the Barren of Herend was repopulated between 1764 and 1847.

After the fall of communism in Hungary the factory was privatised and is now 75% owned by its management and workers, exporting to over 60 countries of the world.

[2] Prince William, Duke of Cambridge and Catherine Middleton got a special painted Herend Porcelain as wedding gift from Hungary on 29 April 2011.

The religious distribution of the town is 47.1% Roman Catholic, 49.5% Hungarian Reformed Church, 1.8% Evangelical, 1.6% irreligious.
