The large Reformed church is the most distinctive building in Debrecen, the largest Protestant church in the country. Built between 1805 and 1824 in neoclassical style, it is located on a site where churches have been erected since the Middle Ages.
This church was built in the baroque and Louis XVI style. It was given official cathedral status in 1993 by Pope John Paul II. It houses a certified replica of the Shroud of Turin.
The Evangelical Church was built from 1784 to 1786, but the congregation worked on its expansion until 1936, when it acquired its final appearance. In 1796 a tower was built, which was raised in 1825. Between 1850 and 1860, the facades were decorated in a classical and neo-baroque style, then in 1885-6 in an eclectic style.
The Our Lady of Hungary Co-Cathedral was built between 1902 and 1904. The neo-Romanesque exterior of the church, with its rich articulation, buttresses and decorative elements, is a remarkable work of Hungarian ecclesiastical architecture. The two towers of the building are a landmark of the town of Nyíregyháza.
