Szent Rozália kápolna

Szent Rozália kápolna, Catholic chapel in Szeged, Hungary.

The Szent Rozália kápolna is a Greek Catholic chapel in Szeged, moved in pieces to Lechner tér in 1924 and rebuilt with a slightly enlarged roof structure and a new transept. Its facade has a central tower above the main entrance, and inside a ceiling fresco depicts Christ; the altar came from the chapel that stood after the 1879 flood.

The first votive chapel was consecrated on 1 August 1739 in the Palánk district, in front of the Dömötör Church, after city leaders vowed to build it when the plague brought by Temesvár merchants subsided. Damaged but not collapsed in the 1879 flood, it was demolished and rebuilt nearby between 1881 and 1883. In 1924 it was cut into numbered pieces and moved to Lechner tér, where Bishop Gyula Glattfelder consecrated it on 17 November 1929.

The chapel is dedicated to Saint Rosalia, whose feast was celebrated on 2 July with representatives from all city districts and Tápé. Since 1921 it has served Szeged's Greek Catholic community, which arrived from eastern Hungary. The Csanád bishop once put on his ceremonial robes here before visiting the city.

The chapel welcomes visitors throughout the year and holds regular religious services, with special celebrations on July 2nd honoring Saint Rozália. Check locally for service times to plan your visit around active worship gatherings.

The chapel's pilasters, horizontal joints and the stone vases on its facade were lost during renovations in recent decades. The benches used until 1969 were replaced by rows of pews, and the tower roof was renovated in 2005. The altar came from the chapel that stood after the flood.
