History of the Inner-City Parish Church Budapest The foundations of the church lie partly on the remains of a Roman building. A military fortification, Contra Aquincum, used to stand on what is now Március 15 Square with the commander’s room stretching beneath today’s church. Archaeological excavations between 2014 and 2016 revealed the remains of a stone building with many separate rooms and brick flooring, part of which could be heated. The fort commander’s room was actively used until the middle of the 4th century. The ditch in the centre of the room was part of the hypocaust. In the 11th and 12th centuries the stones of the Roman fort were reused to build a Romanesque church, whose original foundation walls are still visible today in the crypt. The church was then converted in the 12th century. A wall of the church erected at that time is preserved in the northern tower and is the largest extant Romanesque wall in Budapest.

Throughout its history, its purpose, under the guidence of the Fraciscan Order, foundered by St Francis of Assisi,this holy place of praise and worship, has endured numerous "trials and tribulations" It stands still in the 21st century, bringing to its community and the wider world that visit this beautiful and historic City of Budapest, and Country of Hungary, in its message to those that enter its doors, the true meaning of peace, tranquility, hope and love.In the word Catholic, we acknowledge within its meaning "all embracing" which is a world for which I pray, and trust others who visit this holy place, join me in just not the historical significence of this place, its message, but feel embraced moved and enriched, motivated to-wards making continuous in our daily lives acts of deeds that make our world universal and all embracing.
