Monastery of St Lawrence at Buda

Budapest District II, Hungary

The Monastery of St Lawrence at Buda, also known as the Pauline Monastery of Budaszentlőrinc (budaszentlőrinci pálos kolostor), is a former monastery belonging to the Pauline Order. Destroyed by the Ottomans, the remains of the monastery grounds are in an area called Szépjuhászné (English: Beautiful shepherdess) which is in the saddle between Hárshegy and János Hill in the 2nd district of Budapest. It is where the Pauline Order founded their first friary. Today, only the foundation walls of the monastery remain.
