St. Stephen's Basilica

St. Istvan ter, District V, Budapest, Hungary
Tel: +36 1 317 2859
 

This church is said to be second in size only to St. Peter's in Rome and can allegedly hold 7,000 people. It was completed in 1905 and has been undergoing cleaning and restoration work for the last eight years. It contains the mummified hand of St. Stephen himself, which is paraded around the city on his name day. The cathedral has a height of 96 metres - exactly the same as the Parliament building. For HUF 400, you can visit the viewing platform above the cupola from where, needless to say, you will be able to enjoy splendid views. The platform is open from 9:30am to 6pm, until 31st October.
