The Cathedral of the Assumption of the Blessed Virgin and St Michael the Archangel[1] (Hungarian: Nagyboldogasszony székesegyház), commonly known as Vác Cathedral,[2] is a religious building in the Catholic Church that serves as the cathedral of the Diocese of Vác, is located in the city of Vác[3] in Hungary.

The present church is the fifth structure on this site.

The first cathedral was built in 1074, the same site of the present, but was destroyed in the fourteenth century, during the invasions of the Mongols.

During the Ottoman occupation of Hungary the last remnants of the wall collapsed.

In 1944 during World War II a Soviet bomb hit the dome without actually detonating so a cool church parishioners remember what considered a "miracle".
