Veszprém – Reformed Church

This church is located in the middle of the housing estate but on a spacious, open lot. Its modern U-shaped, Mediterranean-style building with a bell tower and low-pitched hip roof houses an activity room, office, guesthouse, and a minister’s apartment. The building ensemble was designed by Zsolt Kovács. The complex has a symmetrical arrangement with a tower in the middle above the main entrance of the church. The main building and the southern wing have two stories, while the northern wing is a single story. The arrangement resembles an enclosed courtyard and atrium. The Lord’s table is in the middle of the two-story tall congregation room that has an exposed roof structure. The pulpit is behind and above this and the pews are arranged in a U-shape. There is a ceramic picture in the gallery over the pulpit designed by Katalin Fodor Nagy and painted by the children of the congregation. The gallery runs around three sides of the room and is accessed by a flight of stairs in the antechamber. There is a pump organ in the gallery opposite the pulpit. Around the church is a landscaped park planted mostly with maple trees, and there is a separate, enclosed herb garden that also belongs to the church. Read less
