Rock church

by Maria Bostenaru Dan, "Ion Mincu" University of Architecture and Urbanism, Bucharest, Romania

The Rock church in Budapest, much less known than the stone church in Helsinki, was built in the honour of Saint Gellért in 1931, after the design of Kálmán Lux. The Gellért Hill cave in which it was built is part of a network of caves in Budapest, Hungary. It is an example of intervention in carst systems.
