Pecs, Hungary

Pecs, Hungary

We moored at Mohacs and took a coach to Pecs, and just to be difficult, it is pronounced as Paige. It is the 8th largest city in Hungary but has a rich cultural history as it used to be the largest city in medieval times and hosts the country's oldest university and the Ottomans occupied it for 150 years and left some buildings and a mosque.

The cathedral viewed from the west.
Inside the bishop's palace...
...bhis study...
...a waiting room...
......a meeting room...
...and more rooms.
The east wing of the bishop's palace with one tower of the cathedral.
The south side of the cathedral with ts unique design of four towers.
