Halásztelki Árpád-házi Szent Erzsébet-templom - Halásztelki Árpád-házi Szent Erzsébet-templom

Good place

Its design is very cozy compared to a "traditional" church.

Fantastic acoustics, puritan and special look.

St. Elizabeth's Church in the Árpád House in Halásztelki

As a child, I was the first sacrifice here and now my little daughter was baptized here too ☺

The Church of St. Elizabeth of the Árpád House is located in the center of Halásztelek, on Kisgyár Street. The church is one of the significant organic works of the 1970s and 1980s, designed by György Csete.

I really liked the interesting style and design of the church. Its garden is very beautiful, it is worth visiting the ancient Hungarian-style round building of the church. Decorated with interesting motifs.

The church of St. Elizabeth in the Árpád House was designed by György Csete. They are called "sphere", "dome" and "yurt church". Organic architecture Below the church is a parsonage of the same area. On the basement level is a faith classroom and a community space for local scouts. Occasionally, classes are held here by communities of believers and their guests. The church itself is extremely interesting, built with new technology, the vase is given by beams glued and bent by a special process. Inside the interior is all the wood, the inner covering of the dome, the floor and the altar in the middle. Behind the altar, the flags of the designer György Csete's wife, applied artist Ildikó Csete, decorate the space. The dome itself shows an acoustic curiosity, the voice speaking at the altar in the middle can be heard at the same volume at all points in the space - there used to be no microphone and amplification, no one missed it, almost a whisper on any of the semicircular benches. In the center of the dome is a "little dome" that functions as a light window, with a cross in the center that is visible as a cross in all directions. The construction of the church was started and completed by the parish priest Ferenc Szenderffy, the faith and will of Father Ferenc gave Halásztelek this great work. Thanks are due to those craftsmen and believers, many of whom have contributed their work to the deservedly renowned architectural work of Europe. I didn’t dare use the world-famous token, although one of our Catholic guests from the U.S. had already heard about the church back home and was very happy to see it.
