Szolnok - Franciscan Church

The Baroque Franciscan church not far from the Szolnok Art Gallery was built in 1724-57 and is the most important historical monument in Szolnok; the architect was the Italian Carlone, who designed other buildings in Eger. In the main altarpiece the disciples are wearing 18th C Hungarian costume. Unfortunately the church is only open during services. The convent (1723-51) and the church form a closed square.
