Pecs has many notable landmarks which reveal something about the history and culture of the city.

The Bishop's Palace

The very first Bishop's Palace in Pecs was built in the 12th century but was later reconstructed incorporating the Renaissance style to its design. Again, in the 18th century, the palace was once more refashioned into a Baroque building. Tourists may visit every Thursday during the summer season. The waiting room, parlour, dining and conference room, private library and chapel, and the Habsburg room are open for public viewing.
