The celebrations of the 15 March 1848 revolution and freedom fight of Hungary are in the memory of the birth of a nation. The significance of the events of 1848-1849 is that the people of Hungary started to think of themselves as members of the Hungarian nation, and together they acted for it, many of them also sacrificing their lives. Among them, there were Hungarians, Germans, Jewish, Gypsy people, and many more of other different nationalities. On 17 March 2015 we remembered those Roma freedom fighters and revolutionists who gave their lives for the independence of Hungary and for the nation. The event was organized by the Farkas János Foundation and took place in the Buda Castle in the Institute and Museum of Military History.
