The first Franciscan monks arrived in Esztergom in 1677. In the upper part of Esztelnek there was already a chapel of St. George, with a wooden monastery built next to it. This monastery was blessed on 1 October 1690. The church next to the monastery was built between 1710 and 1729 using elements of the old St George's Chapel - probably the sanctuary of the church. The stone monastery was completed in 1750. The only reminders of the old monastery in its original form are the double sacristy, the cupboard built into the wall, the ornate sacristy cupboard and the less spectacular east wing walls, and the carved beam confirming the year of the monastery's foundation.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1457 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2414-scaled-1-300x169.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"169\" srcset=\"https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2414-scaled-1-300x169.jpg 300w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2414-scaled-1-1024x576.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2414-scaled-1-768x432.jpg 768w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2414-scaled-1-1536x864.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2414-scaled-1-2048x1152.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2414-scaled-1-370x208.jpg 370w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2414-scaled-1-760x428.jpg 760w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2414-scaled-1-270x152.jpg 270w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/> <img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone wp-image-1458 size-medium\" src=\"https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2382-scaled-1-300x188.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"188\" srcset=\"https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2382-scaled-1-300x188.jpg 300w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2382-scaled-1-1024x640.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2382-scaled-1-768x480.jpg 768w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2382-scaled-1-1536x960.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2382-scaled-1-2048x1280.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2382-scaled-1-370x231.jpg 370w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2382-scaled-1-740x464.jpg 740w, https:\/\/peregrinus.hu\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/DSC_2382-scaled-1-760x475.jpg 760w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 300px) 100vw, 300px\" \/><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The members of the Order of Friars Minor, founded by St Francis in 1209, arrived in Transylvania via Germany and Hungary between 1240 and 1250, settling first in Bansk\u00e1 Bystrica, Sibiu and T\u00e2rgu Mures (T\u00e2rgu Mures).
