Beatified Zoltán Meszlényi church

Beatified Zoltán Meszlényi church, Catholic parish church in Kelenföld, Budapest, Hungary

The Beatified Zoltán Meszlényi church is a contemporary Catholic church in Kelenföld, Budapest, designed by the Jahoda and Páricsy architectural firm. Its yellow-plastered main building has a gabled facade with a large circular window with radiating mullions above a recessed entrance porch on square pillars, reached by a stone staircase with metal railings. A separate bell tower stands to the left: a grey concrete base pierced by tall pointed arches, topped by a metal lattice structure carrying a cross.

The parish began in 1919, when catechist Havlicsek Vince celebrated mass in the gymnasium of the Hengermalom street school. A chapel association formed in 1921, an emergency chapel opened on Fehérvári út in 1931, and the community gained full parish rank in 1940. The foundation stone of the new church, designed by Jahoda and Páricsy, was laid on 23 April 2013; Cardinal Péter Erdő consecrated it on 31 October 2014.

The church is dedicated to Blessed Zoltán Meszlényi, a bishop who died in 1951 in Kistarcsa internment camp. The parish also carries the name of Saint Adalbert, its original patron. Since 1994 the Szent Adalbert Missziós Alapítvány has organized scouting, care for the elderly and contact with Hungarians beyond the border, and around 2000 it began offering free dental care.

The church welcomes visitors during its regular opening hours and holds scheduled masses throughout the week that visitors can attend. The building is easily accessible from nearby streets in the neighborhood.

The parish is named after Lágymányos, yet both its old emergency chapel on Fehérvári út and the 2014 church stand in Kelenföld, not Lágymányos. The new church is dedicated to Blessed Zoltán Meszlényi, designed by the Jahoda and Páricsy studio and built by Alp-Inter Magasépítő Kft. for an estimated 750 million forints at 2010 prices.
