SZőREG
'Szőreg' (Serbian: ''Сириг'' or ''Sirig'') is a settlement which forms a part of Szeged in Csongrád County, Banat (Hungarian: Bánát), Hungary.
There are some Serbs living there besides Hungarians. Szőreg has two churches: a Roman Catholic (Hungarian) and a Serbian Orthodox church. The village has a long history. One of the final battles of the war of independence against the Habsburg Empire (1848-49) took place close to Szőreg.
The village became adjoined to Szeged in 1973. The settlement is otherwise renouned for its rose-production. A rose festival is held here every summer.
Szőreg is also known for being the birthplace of former professional boxer Joe Bugner in 1950. He emigrated to the UK as a child and boxed under the British and Australian flags.
