Budapest's largest, Hungary's third largest church, the richly ornate St. Stephen's Basilica. It had been built for 55 years and showcases the characteristics of three great architects' favourite styles: Baroque, Neo-Renaissance and Classicism. It's the richest church of the city with exquisite red marble and 22-carat gold ornaments. It's a working church with services, wedding ceremonies and organ concerts. You can walk up the steps or take the elevators to the top of the dome, so that you can enjoy an amazing view over the Pest side. The Basilica houses one of our most important national relics, the 1000-year-old mummified right hand of our first king, St. Stephen. Let me show you the Basilica and its neighborhood, book a Pest walk with me.
