Budapest - St George's Square

(Local Name: Szent György tér) Between the Castle Palace and the former Upper Town lies St George's Square (Szent György tér), where jousting tournaments and other equestrian games were held in the Middle Ages. On the south side of the square, near the castle, stands a beautiful ornamental fountain (1904) designed by Alajos Stróbl; it shows King Matthias Corvinus hunting.

On the northeast side of the square stands Sándor Palace (Sándor palota), built in 1806 in the neo-classical style.
