General information about Saint Yuriу (George) Church (Uzhhorod)

The Roman Catholic Church of Saint Yuriу (George) was built in the 17th century by the ruler of Uzhhorod Yuriy Druhet, who converted to Catholicism, on the site of the Lutheran church that he destroyed.

The construction was continued by his heir Miklosh Bercheni. In the 18th century, the temple was rebuilt in the neo-baroque style, the famous master Yanosh Lukach worked on the design. A clock has been installed on the bell tower, which has been running for more than 150 years.

In the interior, the unusual neo-baroque altar of 1895 by master Lukash Yozhef Krakker deserves special attention.

Римсько-католицький костел Святого Юрія (Георгія) споруджено в XVII сторіччі володарем Ужгорода Юрієм Другетом, який навернувся в католицтво, на місці зруйнованого ним же лютеранського храму.

Будівництво продовжив його спадкоємець Міклош Берчені. В XVIII столітті храм був перебудований у стилі необароко, над оформленням працював знаменитий майстер Янош Лукач. На дзвіниці встановлено годинник, який іде ось уже понад 150 років.

В інтер'єрі особливої уваги заслуговує незвичайний необароковий вівтар 1895 року роботи майстра Лукаша Йожефа Краккера.
