This record belongs to János Róvan and his wife, Sára. They were a Hungarian couple who lived together for a very long time — 147 years! It is one of the longest marriages in history. They loved each other very much and stayed together all their lives.
János and Sára were born in a small village called Strádova, in Hungary. The village was quiet and beautiful, surrounded by green fields and hills. People there lived simple lives. They worked on farms, took care of animals, and helped their neighbours. János and Sára also worked hard every day. They grew their own food and looked after their home.
János lived to be 172 years old, and Sára lived to be 164 years old. They both stayed healthy for a long time because they ate natural food, walked a lot, and spent much time outside. They were always kind and friendly to others. Everyone in the village liked them and often came to visit them.
They died almost on the same day in 1825. It was a sad moment for the whole village. People could not believe that they had lived so long. When they died, their son was already 116 years old! He was also very old, but he still remembered many stories about his parents and told them to younger people.
János and Sára became famous in Hungary because of their long life and strong love. Their story shows how important family, kindness, and a healthy life can be. Even today, people remember them as a symbol of true love and long life.
