The Battle of the Corvin Passage (Hungarian: Corvin közi csata) was fought in the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. It proved to be one of the most important battlegrounds during the war. A statue can be found at Corvin köz, near Corvin–negyed (Budapest Metro), to mark this important event in the Hungarian Revolution of 1956. The battle is known for starting the career of Gergely Pongrátz, founder of Jobbik.
