Saint Ignatius of Loyola Church, Esztergom-Víziváros, Baroque parish church in Víziváros, Hungary.
Saint Ignatius of Loyola Church in Vizivavros is a baroque parish church with two towers that were built in 1796. The interior features vaulted ceilings and a brick portico that help define the space.
The building was constructed between 1713 and 1738 by architect Petrus Ross for the Jesuit order after Turkish forces were driven from the region. This period marked a time of rebuilding across Esztergom.
The church is named after the founder of the Jesuit order, reflecting the order's influence in the region during the 18th century. Visitors today can see religious artworks that show how important this saint was to the local community.
The church is located at Mindszenty Square and is easy to find in this part of the city. Visitors should know that regular Catholic services take place and respectful clothing is expected.
From 1820 to 1856, this church served as the archbishop's cathedral while the Basilica of Esztergom was being built. This was an unusual role for a parish church, which normally serves a local congregation.
