Where Past Meets High-Tech
History surrounds you, but the present is here too: this nearly 800-year-old church is also the capital’s most modern sacred space. Medieval column capitals coexist with stage technology, and 19th-century stained glass with a modern high altar. Each layer tells the church’s story—glittering weddings, distinguished visitors, coronations, and funerals. We listen to those stories, and to the bell chime that has marked the life of the church and its community—our guide on this exclusive journey through time.
This is the fourth themed walk created with the Archdiocese of Esztergom-Budapest and Imagine Budapest.
