Cathedral - Pécs
The Pécs Cathedral, located in the old town of Pécs (Pécsi Szent Péter és Szent Pál Székesegyház, also known as the Castle Church, Cathedral, or Basilica), founded during the time of King Stephen I, bears the stylistic features of several centuries. Its most significant transformation is associated with Mihály Pollack. The exterior of the cathedral became Classicist in some features, but Gothic stylistic elements predominantly prevail.
