It was originally a single-nave Romanesque church, which may have been built in the 12th century. It was converted into a three-aisle in the Gothic style in the 15th century. it took its Baroque form in the 18th century. The Turks left this one church for Christians. At first it was used jointly by Catholics and Protestants, later it was held exclusively by Unitarians. After the city was recaptured from the Turks in 1686, for a time this church belonged to the Bishop as the cathedral became unusable. The exterior of the church is simple, with a low tower rising on the triangular gable of its façade.
Pécs' oldest, still functioning, Catholic church. Medieval walls fit into the building complex of a former Carmelite monastery with a walled garden, currently a theological college in the former monastery building. In the Turkish times, when it was the only Christian church allowed, the "Pécs Dispute" venue, where preachers from several denominations competed with each other in their rhetoric, tested their conviction.
This small church - outside the medieval city walls - was the only one in Pécs in the Turkish era where Christian worship could be held. Every denomination used this. After the expulsion of the Turks, for a short time, it also served as a cathedral. Today, it is our only church that has survived in part (its Gothic sanctuary) in its original, medieval form.
Small cozy church near the city center.
Wonderful panorama and close to the ruins of Tettye.
