Removed from Unnamed collection

Nestled in the heart of Debrecen, St. Anne's Cathedral is a stunning example of Baroque and Louis Seize architecture. This remarkable church was elevated to cathedral status by Pope John Paul II in 1993, making it a significant landmark for both locals and visitors. Since 2011, the cathedral has proudly displayed a certified replica of the Turin Shroud, a piece that draws the curious and the faithful alike.

In 2015, the cathedral celebrated Catholic Memorial Year, marking 300 years since the movement began to refresh and reorganize Catholic practices in Debrecen. This event was a heartfelt tribute to the enduring spirit of the Catholic community in the city.

Visitors are often captivated by the intricate details of the cathedral's design, from the ornate altars to the majestic stained glass windows that bathe the interior in a kaleidoscope of colors. It's not just a place of worship, but a beautiful testament to the city's rich cultural and religious history.
