St. Stephen's Basilica is a beautiful large cathedral that Hungarian's take great pride in. It is named for St. Stephen who as king, brough Christianity to the Magyar People.
It is a real jewelbox with a beautiful altar
and a magnificent dome.
It isn't the largest church I've visited in Europe, but it is a beautiful tasteful and impressive church.
Off to the side of the main sanctuary is a small room dedicated to St. Stephen or Istvan as the Magyar people call him.
And in a small reliquary that you pay to have a light illuminate
is the hand of St. Stephen himself. Kind of strange, but cool.
