St. Stephen's Basilica

Religious site4.7 · 75 1834.5 · 22 794≈ 1 hEntry: ~2300 HUF

Budapest's monumental Roman Catholic co-cathedral, raised over five decades (1851–1905) by architects József Hild and Miklós Ybl. Its 96-metre dome matches the Hungarian Parliament in height, symbolising parity between sacred and secular power. A gilded reliquary chapel preserves Hungary's holiest relic — the mummified Holy Right Hand of King Saint Stephen — while the dome gallery affords a 360-degree vista over the Danube.

Highlights

  • 96-metre dome matching the Parliament's height
