Description

St Stephen’s Basilica is Hungary’s third largest Catholic church and the most significant church of the capital.

I will talk about the beautiful, prestigious sculptures, mosaics, paintings and altars found inside the basilica and I will tell you the legend of one of Hungary’s most valuable relics, the Holy Right which you will also have the opportunity to admire.
