Szentbékkálla
Also known as Szentbekkalla
Szentbékkálla is a village in Káli-basin, Balaton-Highlands, Veszprém county, Hungary. In the Middle Ages the village had a monastery of St. Benedict, which explains its name, because earlier it was Szentbenedekkál (Kál of Saint Benedict). Kál was a prince and landlord here in the ages of the Árpád's peoples arrival to Hungary.
