Nyirbator Attractions

In the Middle Ages this rural town (pop. 14,000) 35km (22mi.) southeast of Nyíregyháza belonged to the Báthori family, princes from Transylvania who become great feudal lords. Nyírbátor has them to thank for its two magnificent medieval churches, of which St George's Church, now the Reformed Church, is one of the major Late Gothic Hungarian edifices.

The Minorite Church was founded in the 15th C and converted to Baroque in the early 18th C. The 1731 Passion Altar is particularly noteworthy.
Read More Reformed Church
The Reformed Church in Nyírbátor was built by István Báthori in the 1480s. It was taken over by the Calvinists in the 16th C and restored.
István Báthori Museum
The István Báthori Museum in the priory near the church (1733-58) exhibits the ecclesiastical treasures, including the carved choir-stalls and valuable furnishings from the Renaissance Palace of the Báthori family in Transylvania.
