St. Anna's

Don't expect crowds or brochures in English as this church is a bit off the tourist trail. Built in 1892 to accommodate the growing population of Lehel, this beautiful house of worship was built in an impressive Romanesque style with a few twists like the giant oxidising horseman of the apocalypse standing guard over the ornately carved portal and the working clock above him. Check out the mosaics by the altar. Across the street is the original cloister church where monks can be seen praying day and night. Built from 1727 - 1733, this small building was destroyed by Allied bombs on April 24, 1944 and rebuilt to its former resplendence in 1951.
