A
Belgrade Cathedral
The red spire of Belgrade Cathedral, seat of the Serbian Orthodox bishop in Hungary and built in 1764, rises from within a walled courtyard to the north of Castle Hill. One of the church outbuildings contains the Serbian Ecclesiastical Art Collection, a treasure-trove of icons, vestments, and church plate in precious metals (open at the same times as the church).

Blagoveštenska Church
Across Fő tér to the northeast is the Serbian Orthodox Blagoveštenska Church, built in 1754. The church, with fine baroque and rococo elements, hardly looks ‘eastern’ from the outside, but once you step inside, the ornate iconostasis and elaborate 18th-century furnishings give the game away.
