If you walk down the hill from the Citadel towards Erzsebet Hid (Elizabeth Bridge) you will come across this statue of St. Gellert, an eleventh-century martyr. It is located in a pleasant spot with an artificial waterfall. The monument stands some ten meters high and was built in 1904.

Just wondering which is the correct spelling for this saint?
Gellert or GETTERT? You have both posted and as a member of the Gettert family, I was just wondering. Thank you!
