Welcome to the next episode of Wonders of Hungary, in which we present you the iconic Matthias Church in Budapest. 😍
The popular name commemorates the royal wedding of King Matthias I held here – a relief depicting his coat of arms was found during the excavation works. The official name of the building, however, is the Church of the Assumption of Buda Castle.
When Matthias Church was built in the 13th century, it was the first church in the town of Buda. It was a masterpiece of Hungarian Gothic art, where medieval kings came for mass.
