Saint Nicholas monastery and church, Budapest, Medieval Dominican monastery ruins in Buda Castle Quarter, Hungary.
The remaining walls and tower of Saint Nicholas monastery stand integrated within the structure of the Hilton Budapest hotel at Castle Hill.
Founded in the 13th century, the monastery endured multiple destructions, including the Mongolian invasion of 1245 and Ottoman forces in 1541.
The monastery reflects the Dominican Order's focus on education and preaching through its architectural design, featuring Gothic elements and religious inscriptions.
The ruins maintain public accessibility through the Hilton Budapest hotel, with designated pathways leading to the medieval church remains.
The cloister arcade and churchyard between hotel blocks serve as an outdoor event space, merging thirteenth-century architecture with modern functions.
