About this experience

Visit Budapest’s grandest Catholic church—St. Stephen’s Basilica—and discover its rich art, history, and the city’s best panoramic view.

Step inside St. Stephen’s Basilica, Budapest’s largest Catholic church, whose construction spanned fifty years. Named after Hungary’s first Christian king, the basilica houses the nation’s remarkable “Holy Right”—the mummified right hand of King St. Stephen, displayed in the Holy Right Chapel. Marvel at lavish décor: fifty varieties of marble and precious stone, a grand organ, and walls adorned with sculptures, paintings, and mosaics. Gaze up at the immense dome, rising 65 meters high, and admire the high altar’s white Carrara marble statue of Saint Stephen, guarded by an angel with the Holy Crown. Conclude with a breathtaking 360-degree panorama from the basilica’s highest observation point over Pest.
