Szentendre is a rich artistic heritage
Welcome to Szentendre
Szentendre (‘St Andrew’) is the southern gateway to the Danube Bend but has none of the imperial history or drama of Visegrád or Esztergom. As an art colony turned lucrative tourist centre, and easily accessible from Budapest just 19km south, Szentendre strikes many travellers as a little too ‘cute’, and is crowded most of the year. Still, it’s an easy train trip from the capital, and the town’s dozens of art museums, galleries and churches are well worth the trip. Just try to avoid it on summer weekends.
