Church of Stigmatisation of Saint Francis of Assisi, Baroque parish church at Fő Street, Budapest District I, Hungary
The church features a facade with Tuscan pilasters and a southern tower, complemented by angel statues representing the Franciscan order coat of arms.
Bosnian Franciscan monks started building a monastery at this location in 1703, and the church construction began in 1731 under mason Hans Jakab.
The church interior contains multiple altars dedicated to saints, with a fresco of the Porciunkula farewell scene painted by Gergely Vogl in 1756.
Visitors can access the church via metro line 2 at Batthyány tér station, located 120 meters from the building at Fő utca 43.
The monastery adjacent to the church transformed into a hospital in 1805, and the Baroque furnishings were crafted in the monks' workshop.
