Located on Szent István tér (St. Stephen's Square) in the Pest district, St. Stephen's Basilica (Hungarian: Szent István-bazilika) has been the largest church in the Hungarian capital, Budapest, since its consecration in 1905, and the concathedral of the Roman -Catholic Archdiocese of Esztergom-Budapest.

Inside there is space for up to 8500 people. The church near the Chain Bridge is dedicated to the first Christian Hungarian king, Stephen. Originally it was built by Pest Germans as the parish church of St. Leopold, under the patronage of Saint Leopold of Austria, the sub-district is still called Leopoldstadt today. In the entrance area there is a sculpture of St. Gellért with his pupil St. Emeric, son of King Stephen the Saint.

Fisherman's Bastion

Highlight • Monument

The Matthias Church is a Roman Catholic church in the Hungarian capital Budapest. It is located in the Vár castle district on the Buda side. The Matthias Church - officially the Church of Our Lady (Nagyboldogasszony-templom) - was the first church on the Schlossberg. It is registered as part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The coronation ceremonies of Charles I Robert of Anjou (1309), Franz Joseph I (1867) and Charles IV (1916) took place here. It is therefore also known as the “Coronation Church”.
According to the tradition of the Diocese of Esztergom, King Stephen I (1000–1038) built a church here in 1015. Sources from the 17th century also confirm this and it is believed that the remains of Saint Gellért, who was martyred on the nearby Gellért Hill, were buried here. However, there are no traces of any settlement on the castle hill before the 13th century.
