One route is via Main Road 57, which connects Pécs with Mohács. The road to Hásságy branches off at Olasz. Another option is Road 5611 from Ellend. Which route is best for your trip depends on where you are coming from; no specific distances or travel times are given.

The location of the Szent-Rókus Chapel is described precisely to help you find your way around the village: you can reach it from Petőfi Sándor Street. On the hill, this street continues as Ady Endre Street in a semicircle; a 60-metre-long dirt track leads from there to the chapel.

The village lies at the confluence of the Ellendi stream and the Vasas-Belvárdi-vízfolyás. The artificial Hásságyi-tó is right next to Hásságy. It was created in the 1960s on the Vasas-Belvárdi-vízfolyás watercourse.

The 206-metre-high Hásságyi-szőlőhegy lies south of Hásságy and west of Olasz. There are fields and vineyards on the hill, as well as several crosses and statues. Winemaking is also part of the village’s history: in the first third of the 19th century, it was one of Hásságy’s sources of income, and the village had substantial vineyard areas.

The Szent-Rókus Chapel stands on the northwestern edge of Hásságy, at the edge of the plateau. Built in 1769 in the Baroque style, it is locally protected. A second chapel, the Szentháromság Chapel, is in the Hásságy wine-growing area. It was established in 1890 as a place of prayer against the spread of phylloxera. The two buildings therefore differ both in their locations and in the reasons they were built.

The village is also home to the Roman Catholic Páduai-Szent-Antal Church. It was built in 1753; renovation work began in June 2023 and ended in September 2023. The date of the church’s construction and the clearly defined later renovation period provide two different points of reference in the village’s history.

Around 1740, German settlers arrived in Hásságy and established the “Schwabendorf” district above the church. Later, “Raizedorf” Street was built to the west, on the other side of the stream valley. These place names and their stated locations offer a specific glimpse into the development of the settlement areas.

The Hásságy library and free internet access are located in the complex that houses the cultural centre, municipal office and doctor’s surgery. Occasional events are held at the cultural centre, including weddings, balls and programs celebrating German national traditions.

A hike along the Mária Route from Magyarsarlós via Hásságyi-halastó and Hásságy to Máriakéménd was announced for 2017. Another earlier announcement described a 10-km hike scheduled for November 4: it ran from the turnoff near Lothárd via the Szentháromság Chapel, the Szentága Valley, the site of the former Pauline monastery, Lake Olaszi and Hidor Mountain to the Szent-Rókus Chapel, continuing on to Hásságy. These dated references describe past hikes; there is no marked hiking trail through Hásságy itself.
