Where to stay in Toponár
Where you base yourself shapes the visit — here's the character of each area.
Kaposvár carries the rooms, and it carries the reasons to book them too: the Rippl-Rónai Museum, Our Lady of the Assumption Cathedral and the Kaposvár Aréna all belong to the city rather than to Toponár. The quarter is residential. A bed taken in Kaposvár leaves Toponár a short run out on the north-eastern side, which is how anyone who needs an address here tends to work it.

About Toponár
What are the main landmarks in Toponár?
Toponár has none of its own. The record credits Kaposvár with Our Lady of the Assumption Cathedral, the Rippl-Rónai Museum, the Kaposvár Aréna and Stadion Kaposvár Rákóczi, while this north-eastern quarter draws nothing comparable. Somogy County keeps its collections in the city.
What Toponár puts within reach is all of that, a short way off, rather than a sight standing on its own streets.
What is the history of Toponár?
No charter year attaches to Toponár. It reaches the record as a quarter of Kaposvár, a city with county rights whose documented past runs through the Diocese of Kaposvár and its standing as the seat of Somogy County, so the dates that survive were written for the city rather than for its outlying parts. Transdanubia is old ground, and Lake Balaton lies away to the north, but the paperwork for this quarter begins with a municipal boundary.
Where is Toponár?
Toponár lies on the north-eastern side of Kaposvár, in Somogy County, on Transdanubian ground south of Lake Balaton.
