St. Stephen's Basilica, located in Budapest, Hungary, is one of the most significant religious and architectural landmarks in the city. Named after Stephen I, the first King of Hungary, the basilica was completed in 1905 after more than 50 years of construction. It features a stunning neoclassical design, with a grand dome that reaches a height of 96 meters, making it one of the tallest buildings in Budapest. The interior is richly decorated with marble, frescoes, and statues. The basilica also houses a precious relic, the mummified right hand of St. Stephen, known as the Holy Right.
