The Széchenyi Mansion of Gencsapáti is one of the listed mansions of the Vas county settlement, located in the part of the village called Gyöngyösapáti. The mansion's present form is due to several families: the articulation of its ground plan also proves that it was (re)built and enlarged by several families, since the property did not have only one owner over the course of time. The mansion's park, which is under nature protection, could formerly boast the county's oldest and most valuable stock of trees; today the whole area is in a badly deteriorated, neglected condition.
