Sashalom ({{Langx|de|Adlerhügel}}) is a neighbourhood within the 16th District of Budapest. It is mostly a green and suburban environment away from traffic and businesses.
A monument was erected in Sashalom to commemorate the tens or hundreds of thousands of German people deported in January 1945 to the internment camps of the Soviet Union as slave labor.{{cite news|url= https://pestbuda.hu/en/cikk/20220120_a_monument_was_unveiled_in_sashalom_for_the_germans_deported_from_hungary |title=A monument was unveiled in Sashalom for the Germans deported from Hungary|date= January 20, 2022|work=Pest Buda|access-date=November 21, 2024}} There had been a battle of Budapest in early January 1945, during which Russians took the neighborhood.{{cite news|url= https://books.google.com/books?id=9YwpAAAAIBAJ&pg=PA2&dq=%22Sashalom%22&article_id=1042,338686&hl=en&sa=X&ved=2ahUKEwib0K2e4-6JAxVeg4kEHU80OgQQ6AF6BAgFEAM#v=onepage&q=%22Sashalom%22&f=false|title=Battle Midst Famed Landmarks|work=Lewiston Evening Journal via AP|page=2|date=January 6, 1945|access-date=November 21, 2024}}
