Árpád Bridge -
Árpád Híd
Here's what Wikipedia tells us about:
Árpád Bridge or Árpád híd is a bridge in
Budapest, Hungary,
connecting Buda and
Pest across the Danube.
It is the northernmost public bridge of the capital and the
longest bridge in Hungary, spanning about 2 km with the sections
leading up to the bridge, and 928 m without them.
It is 35.3 m wide.
Its Buda end is Szentlélek tér (near the Main Square of Óbuda, Vasarely and Kassák Museums).
Margaret Island is available from the bridge
from an embranchment, and the bridge overlooks Óbuda Island as well (see
Sziget Festival).
Its construction was started in 1939 by the plans of János
Kossalka, but due to World War II, the work ended only in 1950, directed by Károly Széchy and Pál Sávoly.

Start:
At the given header-coordinates you will find a black memorial
tablet. There is much information on it.
Look for the line before the last. On it's end you will find a word
starting with 'h'.
Take the letters of that word and convert them to numbers using the
following scheme:
A=1, B=2, C=3,...
Add all the numbers together to get 'D'.
On the tablet you will also find some arabic numbers. Look for the
one with the highest value.
Take this number and calculate it's digit sum. This digit sum is
called 'E'.
