Lonely Planet review for Cave Chapel

This chapel is on a small hill directly north of the landmark art nouveau Gellért Hotel (1918). The chapel was built into a cave in 1926 and was the seat of the Pauline order until 1951 when the priests were arrested and imprisoned by the communists and the cave was sealed off. It was reopened and reconsecrated in 1992. Behind the chapel there is a monastery, with neo-Gothic turrets that are visible from Liberty Bridge.
