Capuchin Church<br />
Just a short walk along<br />
Fπ utca from St Anne’s<br />
Church lies the<br />
charming Capuchin<br />
Church, a 19thcentury<br />
replica of an<br />
earlier building. The<br />
first church on the<br />
site was founded in<br />
the 14th century, but was<br />
converted into a mosque<br />
during the Turkish<br />
occupation and almost entirely<br />
destroyed in 1686. Of the few<br />
original features to remain is the<br />
doorway on the southern façade.<br />

Serbian Church<br />
Built by Serbian settlers in<br />
1698, this Baroque church<br />
replaced an earlier one on the<br />
same site. The church’s interior is<br />
arranged according to the Greek<br />
Orthodox tradition, as the Serbs<br />
follow the Orthodox liturgy. The<br />
iconostasis that surrounds the<br />
choir gallery and divides it from<br />
the sanctuary dates from 1850.<br />
It was carved by Serb sculptor<br />
Mihai Janic. d Map L5 • V, Szerb utca<br />

Lotz, Franciscan Church<br />
Lutheran Church<br />
This striking church is<br />
characterized by its utter simplicity,<br />
in keeping with the<br />
design of most Protestant<br />
churches throughout Central<br />
Europe. Built between 1797 and<br />
1808, it is not without charm,<br />
though its very ordinariness is<br />
what makes it stand out. Superb<br />
acoustics make it a popular<br />
venue for classical and organ<br />
concerts. d Map L3 • V, Deák tér 5<br />

Franciscan Church<br />
Built originally in the 13th<br />
century, the Franciscan Church –<br />
like many churches in<br />
Budapest – was used as<br />
a mosque during the<br />
Turkish occupation in<br />
the 16th and 17th<br />
centuries. It was<br />
rebuilt by the<br />
Franciscan order<br />
between 1727 and<br />
1743, and their emblem<br />
remains visible today<br />
in the main portal.<br />
Numerous sculptures of<br />
Franciscan saints also decorate<br />
the church’s façade. d Map L4<br />
