The oldest building in Kapistrán Square is the late Gothic-style Mary Magdalene Tower, the only medieval building in Buda that has survived in its original state. Closed for decades, it has been open to the public once more since the summer of 2017. The panoramic view from the upper level offers a special experience, with views of Budapest’s most important buildings and the nearby crags of the Buda Hills. The garden in front of the tower contains a bronze replica of the Coronation Cape, enlarged to one and a half times its original size. Visitors can also see the foundations of the former church. In the side chapel, a new temporary exhibition of contemporary art is on display every month.
In Kapistrán Square, you will also find one of Budapest’s first memorial plaques, the statue of the Flying Nun, the Artemis Fountain, and many other exciting attractions.
