The Bishop’s Palace stands in the heart of historic Pecs and the vast complex is a must-see on a visit. Walk through its impressive rooms and marvel at the exterior architecture, which has undergone many changes throughout the centuries. Today the yellow façade is still one of Pecs’ most iconic structures. There has long been an important building on the spot where the Bishop’s Palace stands. From A.D. 870 a church stood here, and then in 1009 King Saint Stephen established the Bishopric of Pecs. Visit today, however, and what you will see is not this early example. That church burned down in the 11th century and a Romanesque basilica was constructed in its place. Additional buildings later began appearing around the basilica, together creating the Bishop’s Palace complex. Various bishops have resided here, with Bishop György Klimó completely rebuilding the complex in 1770\. It is the results of this last phase of construction that remain standing here today. Notice, however, that the grand Renaissance style of the interior is different to the façade, which was later remodeled in a Baroque style. Walk around the outside of the building first. There is a mixture of Baroque and neo-Renaissance styles in the different wings. Indeed, it wasn’t until 1965 that six Renaissance windows were discovered in the south wall. One of the highlights of a trip to the palace is the statue of Franz Liszt created by Imre Varga in 1983\. The statue stands looking over the palace balcony to Dóm Square. Venture inside the palace to explore the parlor, waiting room, private chapel, private library, dining room and Habsburg room. There are exhibitions on the past bishops and you can also visit the secret underground tunnel, inner garden and cellar. The only way to explore the Bishop’s Palace is by guided tour. It is open daily, with several tours per day during the summer months. There is a fee to join a tour family discounts are available. Find the palace in the heart of historic Pecs, easily accessible on foot or by public transportation. ## Plan a trip to see Bishop’s Palace Price found within the past 48 hours.

(595 reviews) Stayed for 2 nights to visit Christmas markets. The entrance to the hotel was clean and smart. We were too early to access our rooms, however we were able to leave our luggage to explore the city. Hotel is in a good location. Not too close to the centre so its noisy but an easy walk to the markets or if you'd rather ,the are transport options very close by. Good Irish pub on the corner, but an even better ,ridiculously cheap Asian/ Hungarian restaurant 2 mins walk away. Check in was quick and easy. We were on the top floor. Our room was clean, the shower had excellent pressure/ heat and the beds were super comfortable! Fantastic nights sleep. There was a strong smell of drains in our friends room, however this was manageable with opening windows foe a short time. Don't think there was anything the hotel could do about this as noticed the smell walking around as well. Also no milk/ sugar with tea/ coffee in room, which was a bit of a nuisance. Breakfast. If you want a good selection GO EARLY! Breakfast is 7-10am. We went down at 9am first morning and there was very little left and wasn't replenished. Following day we were down by 8.20am and there was plenty of choice. Overall a decent hotel with a good night's sleep.
