Archiepiscopal Palace in Kalocsa

Archiepiscopal Palace in Kalocsa, Baroque episcopal residence in Kalocsa, Hungary

The Archiepiscopal Palace stands near the Cathedral with a central projection decorated by Ionic pilasters and multiple rows of symmetrical windows.

The palace, constructed in the 1760s, underwent substantial renovations following the Rákóczi Uprising before reaching its final Neoclassical form in 1780.

The Archbishop's Library within the palace contains 150,000 volumes, including the Vizsolyi Bible from 1540 and texts in numerous languages.

The palace complex incorporates the office of the Archbishopric, guest accommodations, and public access areas for viewing historical artifacts.

The Ceremonial Hall displays a collection of portraits depicting all archbishops who served in Kalocsa since the establishment of the diocese.
