Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary, Košice

[2] The oldest part of the church is the Romanesque nave with narrow windows.

The 68 metres high conical tower is the highest in Košice.

[4] After a big fire in 1556, the damaged church served as a store-house up to the beginning of the 18th century, when it was rebuilt in the Baroque style.

The main altar illustrates the Assumption of the Virgin Mary.

Paintings and statues in the church represent the most famous of numerous Dominican saints: Dominic de Guzman, Catherine of Siena, Thomas Aquinas or the Dominican nun Margaret, daughter of the King Béla IV.
