Sopron - St Michael's Church Szent Mihály templom

The Romanesque-Gothic St Michael's Church (Szent Mihály templom), was the town's first parish church. The Romanesque building from the 13th C was extended to a triple-naved hall church by the 15th C and altered again at a later date. In the course of time it was frequented by both Catholics and Protestants, the latter until 1674. Restoration work from 1859-66 by Franz Storno renewed the building to such an extent that it looks Neo-Gothic.

The 48m (157ft) high tower, more precisely its foundations and the octagonal second and third level, have retained their original appearance. Inside the church is a valuable Madonna figure from 1460, the high altarpiece is the work of Bartolomeo Altomonte (1739) and the other decor dates from the period of restoration.
