Bratislava Cathedral of St. Martin

Another late Medieval Gothic, completed in 1452, not large, but noted principally for being the coronation church of Hungarian kings, queens, and consorts from 1563 to 1830. (Their main cathedral had probably been converted into a mosque.) Maria Theresa of Austria also was crowned here.

Interestingly, the cathedral was built right into and became part
of the city's wall

Nave view

The cathedral was built right over a cemetery, and
through this floor glass you can look down into it;
apparently it's a bit moist down there...

Choir

Note: a) the huge figures in the choir carvings, and

b) the figures on the starboard side are much darker than those
on the port side

Miscellaneous chapels, etc.

Much Gothic remains in the interior
