The Városmajori Jézus szíve plébániatemplom (Városmajor Jesus Heart Parish church) is divided into three parts. The small church that is acting as a community center connected with an arcade to the main church that has three naves. Finally, the bell tower, also connected to it with a vaulted archway.
Originally the historic chapel was built by architect Árkay Aladár in Hungarian style. When this chapel soon proved to be too small his son Árkay Bertalan planning a larger church. The three-nave hall church is a flat roof building covered with travertine stone, and if you look at it, it’s put together from standing and lying symmetrically built logs.
Inside the nave separated from the shrine by a triumphal arch. There are the sculptures of six and six Apostles on both sides by Pátzay Pál. There are also picturesque modern frescoes, painted on aluminum panels by Aba-Novák Vilmos.
The colored glass windows are praising the work of Árkayné Sztehló Lili’s hand. The fascinating, interesting parish church declared a national monument.
Architect Árkay Bertalan set a memorial to his father Árkay Aladár, a single column and a pool, in between the small and the big church.

This church is off the beaten track, but well worth a visit if you're into 20th century architecture. The stainer glass is magnificent, as are the paintings either side of the main altar.
