1. St. Stephen's
Basilica, Budapest - Lipótváros, Hungary.
2. The Roman Catholic basilica.
3. St.
Stephen's Basilica was built between 1851 and
1905. It was completed by József Kauser, according to the plans of Miklós Ybl.
4. The
architectural style is Neo-Classical. The facade is anchored by two large bell
towers. In the southern tower is
Hungary's biggest bell, weighing over 9 tones.
5. Now here is a place for praying. Also Stephen Basilica has played an active
role in the musical community since its consecration in 1905. The head
organists of the church have always been very highly regarded musicians. In the
past century the Basilica has been home to choral music, classical music as
well as contemporary musical performances.
6. This is a
standard European Cathedral, but it looks very impressive and majestically.
7. It is a
gorgeous church. Beautiful sculptures
and amazing art works. Walking in this basilica looking at the beautiful
interior, I had a feeling of getting in touch with all the people who have been
here before me.
