Gellért Hill - Gellért Monument

On the north-east slope of Gellért Hill, stands a large bronze statue of the Bishop, the work of G. Jankovits (1902); it is framed by an imitation antique pillared portico. Below the memorial is a man-made waterfall. The best view of the monumental memorial is from Elisabeth Bridge. In order to view it from close quarters it is necessary to climb the flight of steps leading from the bridge. From the Gellért Monument it is a further 20-minute climb to the top of Gellért Hill (Citadel), from where there are magnificent views over the city.
