Trinity Square

The Castle’s busiest and most important square—also the centre of the medieval town—named after the Trinity Column (1713). Did you know? Since 1718 an octagonal public fountain here was fed by springs from the Buda Hills—the locals’ daily water source.

Trivia

Crafted by local masters, the column commemorates the victims of the 1691 plague.

Tip

For a striking photo of Matthias Church, step up onto the monument’s base—the perspective is superb.
