Kecskemét has the most beautiful inner city in Hungary.

Kecskemét's polygonal main square is surrounded by public buildings and by a great Roman Catholic church and a Franciscan monastery.

The Franciscan Church is the oldest building of the town; it surely existed already in the 15^th century. The Catholic and Calvinist believers used it until 1564 as well. In the middle of the 17^th century it was taken over by the Franciscan friars.

The synagogue (1862) has in its courtyard the remains of an older synagogue (1818).

The Town Hall, in the very heart of the city, is one of the most beautiful work of early secession.

The Evangelist church was built in the last years of the Turkish rule. The building has only preserved some traces of the Gothic style.

Ornamental Palace, built in 1912, is the most spectacular and showy Hungarian building of the secession of the centenary.

Visit the József Katona Theatre, Ciróka Puppet Theatre, Town & Hollywood Multiplex Cinema.

There are many museums like József Katona Museum, Hungarian Museum of Photography, Museum of Hungarian Naive Art, Museum of Hungarian Folk Art-crafts, Michelangelo Museum of Medical and Pharmacological History, Szórakaténusz Toy Museum as well.
