Religious, Spiritual sights in Kecskemét

  1. A

    Great Church

    Kecskemét's main square is dominated by the Catholic Great Church built in 1806. The big tablets on the front honour (from left to right) a mounted regiment of Hussars that served in WWI; citizens who died in the 1848-49 War of Independence; and the Kecskemét victims of WWII. From June to August its tower can be climbed for views of the city's sun-bleached rooftops.
