| Summary: | The article is written by a Russian-Hungarian team. The first part deals with the French experience of organizing workers' colonies (1851-1900s); the second part, with the first and the best example of the Hungarian garden city of Vecerlelep (a suburb of Budapest, 1908-1930s). This location is little known to the domestic reader; however, in the 1920s, Vekerlelep was considered as a world-class model for the implementation of the garden-city concept. The final part addresses the problem of the interpretation of the garden-city concept by domestic researchers and takes a look at Russian workers' settlements.
