Saint George Church, Sopron

Saint George Church, Sopron, Catholic church in the center of Sopron, Hungary.

Saint George Church is a Gothic-origin church in Sopron with a nave flanked by four Baroque side chapels and a facade that retains two Gothic reliefs. Its eclectic tower was added in 1882, and the interior combines medieval and Baroque elements, including stucco by Pietro Antonio Conti.

Construction began in the 1390s and reflected the medieval growth of the town. In the 18th century the building underwent major reshaping that shaped its current Baroque appearance inside and outside.

The church is also known as Szent György Dómtemplom, and its name recalls the medieval chapel dedicated to Saint George and Saint Margaret, mentioned in a 1398 bull of Pope Boniface IX. The high altar of 1761 depicts the martyrdom and transfiguration of Saint George. The bell in the tower is the oldest in Sopron.

The building sits directly on Szent György Street, where it is easy to reach on foot. Its tight placement between neighboring buildings makes the entrance clearly visible from this main street.

The organ case dates from 1756, while parts of the instrument itself were built by Johann Wöckherl in 1633, making it Hungary's oldest organ. Restorations between 2003 and 2008 returned the instrument to its 1756 disposition. The bell in the tower is the oldest in Sopron.
