Cella trichora, Church ruin in Aquincum, Hungary

The Cella trichora stands as a three-apsed structure with foundations and remnants of Roman walls marking the perimeter of this ancient burial chapel.

Constructed around 360 AD, this funerary chapel represents a transition period when early Christian practices began replacing traditional Roman burial customs in Pannonia.

The placement and design of the chapel demonstrates how early Christians adapted Roman architectural methods to create spaces for their religious ceremonies.

Visitors can reach the archaeological site using Tram 1 or buses 137, 160, 218, 237, 260, 260A, and 901 to the Óbudai rendelőintézet stop.

The restoration work from 1964 preserved and marked the original altar location, allowing visitors to understand the chapel's internal organization.
