The monastery of the Benedictine Order at Pannonhalma was founded in 996 in Western Hungary and had a major role in the diffusion of Christianity in medieval Central Europe. The monastery shows a stratification of different architectural styles and various buildings.

 

Among these buildings: a school (the first ever school founded in the country), the monastic complex – home to the monks whose life is still based on St. Benedict’s Rule ‘Ora et labora’ -, the tourist welcome points and hospitality facilities, the Chapel of Our Lady, the Millennium Chapel and the botanical and herbal gardens.

Interesting document of the counter-reformation sacral art - 17th century roman-catholic Gothic Revival altarpiece in the style of local late Gothic altars with wings and predella. The upper part with the medallion depicting David with lions is a Baroque addition from 1687.

The door to the right as you enter the basilica leads to the crypt, a series of eerie vaults at the bottom of 50 steps, with tombs guarded by monoliths representing Mourning and Eternity. Among those at rest here are Cardinal József Mindszenty.

This type of a Gothic retable, with juxtaposition of many figures in relief, is typical for Lower Saxony, but in Central Europe is regarded as unique. Altar has been badly damaged, but especially the statue of St Damian (with the drapery in beautiful style) can mediate the notion of the former altar´s glory. I´m fascinated by the statue of an unknown old bearded saint with big eyes and twisted neck (third figure from the left), it gives me the creeps :-) Regarding iconography, any suggestion is cordially welcome.

Slovak early Baroque Franciscan monastic church dating back to the late 14th century. Currently the only dual-towered Franciscan church in Slovakia.

 

The site of the Church of St. Joseph has been sacred for centuries. Originally, a Gothic church dedicated to the Holy Trinity occupied this location. In 1380, the Carmelite brothers constructed a new church, maintaining the dedication to the Holy Trinity. However, during the Reformation, the Carmelites departed, and the church fell under municipal control, serving various secular purposes.

 

In 1661, Emperor Leopold I granted the church and its accompanying monastery to the Franciscan brothers, marking a new chapter in its history. Despite resistance from the Protestant city council, the Franciscans took possession in 1671, thanks to the intervention of royal forces. This marked the beginning of a significant transformation, supported by local nobility, including Baron František Klobušický.

 

The Church of St. Joseph underwent extensive reconstruction from 1708 to 1718, led by the Košice builder Ján Tornyossi. The renovations were heavily inspired by the Jesuit Church of the Gesù in Rome, introducing Baroque elements that replaced the original Gothic features. The façade, adorned with stucco ornaments and sculptures by Šimon Griming, presents an impressive display of Baroque artistry.

 

Inside, the church boasts a stunning altar dedicated to the Holy Family, crafted by František Strecius. This masterpiece features over 40 sculptures, including depictions of the 12-year-old Jesus, the Virgin Mary, and Saint Joseph. Although the original altar was lost to a fire in 1870, it was replaced by an illusionistic oil painting by the Franciscan artist Konrád Švestka, capturing the essence of the lost masterpiece.
