Liberation Day, celebrated in Hungary on April 4th, commemorated the departure of the last German army units from the country in 1945. Initially declared the main national holiday in the Hungarian People's Republic in 1950, it honored the Soviet forces' role in Hungary's liberation. Ceremonies included wreath laying at Red Army graveyards and military parades, with the holiday removed from official observance in 1989 due to the perceived severity of Soviet-aligned rule. Despite this, private commemorative events persisted, particularly near Soviet memorials like Liberty Square.
