Festetics Palace
The Festetics Palace is a Baroque palace whose construction began in 1745 and lasted more than a century. During this period, the palace, which was first erected on the foundations of a destroyed castle, was tripled in size in two consecutive building projects, most recently in the 1880s, following plans by Vienna-based architect Viktor Rumpelmayer. After Rumpelmayer's death in 1885, the construction was completed by architects Gusztáv Haas and Miksa Paschkisch. The result is one of Hungary's three largest country mansions, which today houses the Helikon Palace Museum.
Our Lady of Hungary Church
The Our Lady of Hungary Church, commonly known as the Gothic Church, was built in 1390 and is the city's oldest structure. The church is divided into three sections towards the equinoctial east: the Neo-gothic 19th-century tower and porch, the nave, and the sanctuary enclosed by three sides of the octagon. The monastery, cloisters, and sacristy connect to the church from the north, while St. Anne Chapel connects from the south.
