    The Matthias Church is a Roman Catholic church in the Hungarian capital Budapest. It is located in the Vár castle district on the Buda side. The Matthias Church - officially the Church of Our Lady (Nagyboldogasszony-templom) - was the first church on the Schlossberg. It is registered as part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site. The coronation ceremonies of Charles I Robert of Anjou (1309), Franz Joseph I (1867) and Charles IV (1916) took place here. It is therefore also known as the “Coronation Church”.
    According to the tradition of the Diocese of Esztergom, King Stephen I (1000–1038) built a church here in 1015. Sources from the 17th century also confirm this and it is believed that the remains of Saint Gellért, who was martyred on the nearby Gellért Hill, were buried here. However, there are no traces of any settlement on the castle hill before the 13th century.

      Very interesting, but constantly overrun.

        Particularly impressive at night when everything is illuminated and also the view over the Danube to the city.
