    The Maria Magdalena Church (Hungarian Mária Magdolna-templom) is a former Roman Catholic church in the Castle District of Budapest. It was dedicated to Saint Mary Magdalene.

    The history of the church goes back to the Middle Ages. The church was built in the Gothic style. Destroyed in the siege of 1686, it was rebuilt in Baroque style after liberation in the 17th century. The church was badly damaged in the Battle of Budapest in 1944, and its ruins were demolished under communist rule. Only the high bell tower remained.

    A single tracery window of the choir has been reconstructed.

    More a single tower than a church, but you can climb it and have a nice 360 ​​° view over Buda. Admission is not cheap, but I think it's the city's highest point.
