Eger - Great Provost's Palace

(Local Name: Nagypréposti palota) Kossuth Lajos utca, where the senior echelons of the priesthood lived, is reached either through Jókai utca or along the Eger river. About 1775 Jakob Fellner, the architect of the Lyceum, designed the Great Provost's Palace (Nagypréposti palota) at Kossuth Lajos utca 16, a building which is in delightful contrast to the Regional Council Offices opposite. Today it houses the Municipal Library.
