Veszprém Castle

Once in the Bakony-mountains, it is also worth visiting Veszprém sometimes called as Queens’ town. Walking on the cobble stoned road of the Castle the tourists can see not only the ecclesiastical buildings but also visit quite a few museums there.

Here you can find the Modern Picture Gallery – László Vass’s Collection, the Gallery Csikász, Károly László’s Collection and the Bricks Collection of the Hungarian Construction on the Holy Trinity Square as well as the Tegularium – all these are in the baroque building of the Dubniczay-house. In front of it one can see the large white building of the Archbishop Palace which is open for visitors all around the year.

However the most characteristic building on the Holy Trinity Square is the neo-roman style Saint Michael Cathedral which was founded by Giselle the first queen of Hungary. From the Northern cape of the Castle where Saint Stephan’s and Beatific Giselle’s statutes are erected, an unforgettable view opens on the houses and tiny streets of the old town as well as on the Viaduct that is one of the symbols of Veszprém.
