Fót is a small town 15 kilometers from Budapest. Not only is the time improving, but so is the virus situation! I can't sit at home!
Thank you so much for your viewing and comments!
There’s a Catholic Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Atlanta, Georgia and a Basilica of the National Shrine of the Immaculate Conception in Washington D.C. I’ve been fortunate to see both of these but it was a long time ago. Nice POV of this church you visited.
Nice shot and let me add a little addition.
In 1845, Count István Károlyi wanted to build a church that would also serve as a family burial place. He commissioned Miklós Ybl to draw up the plans - and although construction was interrupted during the War of Independence and the Count's imprisonment - the church was completed by 1855.
Today, along with the Vigadó, it is the most important work of Hungarian Romanticism. In fact, the monumental four-towered, three-naved church is not one, but two, built on top of each other. On the façade is a 3 metre high statue of the Immaculate Virgin.
