Minorite Church in Miskolc

Minorite Church in Miskolc, Catholic parish church in Miskolc, Hungary.

The Minorite Church in Miskolc is a Baroque Catholic parish church built between 1729 and 1760. Its 60-metre-long facade is divided by Doric and Ionic columns and pilasters into three vertical sections, with two 56-metre towers topped by crosses. The main entrance has a bronze door from 2001, reached by a curved three-lobed staircase, flanked by niches holding statues of Saint Clare and Saint Elizabeth.

Kelemen Didák, a Minorite superior, obtained permission from Emperor Charles III and began construction in 1729 with architect Giovanni Battista Carlone. The choir and crypt were finished by 1735, the main building and towers by 1743, and the crosses were placed on the towers in 1751. A fire in 1843 destroyed the roof and bells, but restoration followed Carlone's original plans by 1845.

The church is also called the Minorite Church after the order that founded it. Its carved pulpit, made between 1740 and 1748 in the Pauline workshop of Sajólád, shows the Sower and the Good Shepherd and four seated Evangelists, with the Minorite coat of arms on the back.

The church stands on Hősök tere, with the former Minorite convent (now the Kelemen Didák boys' college) on its left and the Földes Ferenc secondary school on its right. The main nave is 12 m wide and the towers rise 56 m, so the entrance front is best seen from across the square. The interior is three-aisled with side chapels; the passage to the convent replaces the fourth chapel on the west side.

The church has two bells: the 2,000 kg Gábor bell, cast in 1847 in Wiener Neustadt, hangs in the east tower, and the 150 kg St. Anthony of Padua death bell, cast in Budapest in 1936, hangs in the west tower. The 1843 fire melted the earlier bells.
