Budapest, Hungary 2008

Just behind Fisherman's Bastion is Matthias Church at the heart of Buda's Castle District.  According to church tradition, it was originally built in 1015. The current building was constructed in the florid late Gothic style in the second half of the 14th century and was extensively restored in the late 19th century.  Now in the early 21st century it is again undergoing major restoration.
