One of the highlights is the Veszpr茅m Castle and Castle District, located in the heart of the city, offering breathtaking views of the surroundings. The castle was one of Hungary鈥檚 most significant fortresses. Veszpr茅m is known as the City of Queens because the bishop of Veszpr茅m had the privilege of crowning Hungarian queens. These queens became patrons of the St. Michael鈥檚 Cathedral, Hungary鈥檚 oldest cathedral. Queen Gizella, wife of our founding king, St. Stephen, often stayed in Veszpr茅m. Alongside the basilica, the Castle Hill features several notable buildings:
