Domotor Tower, Szeged

#4 of 9 in Historic Sites in Csongrad County
Religious Site · Hidden Gem · Church
The Dömötör tower is the oldest building in Szeged, Hungary. The foundation was most probably laid during the 11th century, while the lower part was built (in Romanesque style) from the 12th century, and the upper part (Gothic style) from the 13th century. The tower was once part of the former Szent Dömötör templom (St. Demetrius church), but today it stands in Dóm Square, in front of the much larger Votive Church of Szeged. The upper part was rebuilt from the original stones in 1926. The architecture of the tower is similar to another found in Southern France, or in the territory of the former Byzantine Empire.

    An interesting building made of bricks in front of the votive cathedral. Unfortunately it was closed when we were in the neighbourhood.
