The memorial plaque commemorating the soldiers from Piliscsaba was installed on the outer wall of the Radio Hungary Building on October 22, 2004. It was an initiative of the „Society for Piliscsaba“ and the Catholic Archbishop Dr. Istvan Seregély. The simple brass plaque designed by Béla Mónus bears an inscription. The first large-scale demonstrations marking the start of the Revolution took place in Budapest on October 23, 1956. Students from the Budapest universities had drawn up a 16 point programme which they wanted to have broadcasted over national radio. However, this plan was not successful, and instead a speech was read from the Party Secretary Ernő Gerő, who condemned the political rallies and threatened to introduce heavy sanctions. In order to secure the broadcasting station, units from the National Security Services ÁHV were sent to the location during the late afternoon. Despite this demonstration of power, the first battles between demonstrators and state forces ensued in front of the building during the course of the evening. The main demand placed upon the radio broadcaster still remained the transmission of the 16 point programme over the airwaves. As this request was still rejected, the conflict worsened. The police units sent to the site behaved with reserve at first, in obedience to the commands of the Director of the Budapest security forces, Kopásci. At around 9 p.m., an army unit from Piliscaba arrived at the radio station. Instead of turning against the insurgents, however, the commanding officer János Solymosi mounted his tank and issued the order not to open fire on the unsettled crowd. As a sign of solidarity, a flag with its emblem torn out was hoisted. The soldiers left their military vehicles and mixed with the masses, who then came into the possession of weapons and ammunition. The ÁHV units occupying the building observed these scenes. Shortly thereafter, first shots were fired by the Secret Service members, which claimed the life of Solymosi, among other victims. The fierce battles around the radio station continued throughout the night. During the nighttime hours of October 24th, the first Soviet tanks had arrived in Budapest, and some of these were brought into position to protect the radio station. The demonstrators were nonetheless successful in bringing the building under their control during the morning of October 24th. However, the radio broadcaster had since been transferred to the Parliament Building. In the early morning hours of October 25th, the radio broadcasting building – heavily damaged by the battles of the past hours – was retaken by Hungarian and Soviet combat units. The biographies of those protagonists indexed in the inscription could not be researched.
