Vác Cathedral, Baroque cathedral in Vác, Hungary
The Cathedral of the Assumption displays white stone walls, twin bell towers, and a central dome that rises above the surrounding buildings in Vác.
Construction of the cathedral began in 1761 under architect Isidore Canevale, marking a significant period of religious architecture development in eighteenth-century Hungary.
The cathedral interior contains numerous religious artworks, including paintings and sculptures that represent both Hungarian and European Catholic artistic traditions.
Visitors can attend regular mass services in the cathedral, with guided tours available during designated hours to explore the architectural features.
During World War II, a Soviet bomb struck the cathedral's dome but did not detonate, with a fresco inside commemorating this occurrence.
