Cathedral

Cathedral of Vác on Konstantin tér is the building that defines the town. It was built by the basis of Isidore Canevale's plan between 1761–77. It was begun in baroque style but completed in Neoclassical and it's the only remaining monument in the country representing the French neoclassic, late baroque ecclesiology. The high altar and the fresco of the dome was painted by the Austrian painter Maulbertsch, one greatest painters of the 18th century. The cathedral can only be visited during mass or by prior arrangement for tourists, so you may just have to stand outside, admiring its massive columns and statues.

Felettébb furcsa módon a váci székesegyháznak eddig nem volt saját geoládája. Van persze egy virtuális multi, ami érinti, de szerintünk ennél többre érdemes, hiszen ez Vác legmonumentálisabb és egyben meghatározó épülete. Isidore Canevale tervei alapján 1761–1777 között épült. Ugyanõ tervezte a Kõkaput. Az oltárkép és a kupolafreskó Maulbertsch alkotása. A rejtés egy egyszeru, Kõkapu osztályú, B típusú tárgyi postaláda. Segítség nélkül is meg lehet találni.
