An inside visit to the Basilica and on the lookout terrace around the domeour guide Petra was very knowledgeable and informative throughout the tour of St Stephen's basilica in Budapest. She made the whole experience enjoyable and we learnt a lot about the history of Hungary and the basilica in general. Thank you Petra.
You'll find an English-speaking tour guide who will give you the tickets to enter the church. You'll have a guided tour within the church with the help of your tour guide.
You'll be amazed by its luxurious interior, which is covered in genuine gold and embellished with numerous murals and sculptures created by the top local painters of the late 19th century. Furthermore, you'll view the enigmatic Holy Right, a naturally mummified right hand believed to belong to Saint Stephen, the first Hungarian ruler who brought the nation under Christian authority in the eleventh century.
Finally, you'll take an elevator and continue your tour on your own to the dome's panoramic terrace.
