Ozora is a village in Tolna County, Hungary. It has been a notable historic site since the Middle Ages. Pipo of Ozora built his castle here in the 15th century by permission of Sigismund of Hungary in 1416. An important victory of Arthur Görgei at the Battle of Ozora of the 1848 Revolution was gained here.

It is the site of a psychedelic trance festival called O.Z.O.R.A., which has been held every year since 2004.[3] The initial edition was named Solipse and took place during the Solar eclipse of August 11, 1999
