Already in the late 19th century, Lajos Bella researched all the hilltop settlements around Sopron. He discovered 136 large and 60 smaller burial mounds on Burgstallberg. Around 1970, Gyula Szádeczky-Kardos found only a total of 159 of them during renewed surveying and mapping work. Systematic excavations took place from 1971 to 1978 under the direction of Erzsébet Patek.

There is also some variety in the otherwise very rural environment and a shady place to take a break.

In the memorial park in Trianon, the outline of Hungary was created from natural and small stones, the parts of the country annexed by the peace decree and the annexation of the parts of the country are symbolized by walking paths. The adjoining parts were paved with red stones, the area of today's Hungary with green stones, in the middle of which the double cross with the triple burial mound was placed. Hiking trails symbolize the color white.
