The only chapel by a Shanghai architect

Ladislav Hudec chapel in Vyhne

Ladislav Hudec was a world-famous architect from Banská Bystrica.

After being taken prisoner in Russia, he made his way to Shanghai, where for more than 30 years he designed the city’s first skyscrapers, the national theatre and many other buildings. Only at the end of the 20th century was it discovered that, while still a student, he had designed a chapel in Vyhne. The spa chapel of Chapel of Our Lady the Queen in Vyhne is his only building in Europe. The interior can be visited by arrangement with the Vyhne municipal office; the exterior is freely accessible. You can park at Hotel Termál, from where the chapel is about a minute’s walk.
