The name of this grouping was chosen during a meeting of the Presidents of the CSFR Václav Havel, Hungary Árpád Gönz, and Poland Lech Walesa at an event held at the north Hungarian city of Visegrad on February 15, 1991. At this meeting the Presidents signed a declaration on a close cooperation of these three(today four) countries on their way to European integration.
