Fot

Among the towns of Central Hungary, Fót stands out for its monumental Romanesque Revival Church of the Immaculate Conception. Northeast of Budapest, it lies on the western edge of the Gödöllő Hills, where the protected Fóti-Somlyó hill rises above the surrounding settlement. The church was commissioned by Count István Károlyi and built between 1845 and 1855 to plans by Miklós Ybl, one of Hungary’s leading 19th-century architects. Fót maintains a quieter small-town character while remaining part of Budapest’s wider metropolitan area.
