Protest over ruined Balatonalmádi post workers' resort! ✊

Tension is rising in Balatonalmádi, a gem of the southern shore: locals demonstrated for the post workers' holiday home that has stood empty and decaying for six years. This iconic Balaton building is not just abandoned property but a community cause that restored could become a tourism asset for the holiday season. 🏖️

The state put the property up for auction; opening bids must be submitted by Friday. Balatonalmádi municipality would gladly take it for community use – beach programmes, local events – but financial limits make that impossible now. Protesters' message is clear: don't let another valuable Balaton shore piece vanish into private hands – keep it for the region!

The dilapidated resort worsens yearly, walls covered in graffiti, attracting vandalism and spoiling the Balatonalmádi promenade mood. Locals say it symbolises a shared problem of closed institutions burdening tourism. Restored it could bring jobs and programmes for holidaymakers and residents, strengthening the southern shore's appeal.

The Balaton community is rallying: petitions and social campaigns draw attention. If a private investor wins, will it become a hotel or keep decaying? City leaders urge talks with the state to save this piece of Balaton heritage. ✊ Stakes are high before season start – nobody wants another sad sight on the shore.
