Abstract

In September 2021, in relation to the preparation of an archaeological impact study of the area, a team of the National Archaeological Institute of the Hungarian National Museum started a trial excavation on properties of the Roman Catholic Archdiocese of Veszprém in the Castle Hill of Veszprém. The research was carried out in the “European Capital of Culture 2023” programme. In February 2022, parallel with the probing, preventive fieldwork started, the first step of which was a full-scale excavation of the medieval St. George’s Chapel and its surroundings, including the neighbouring basement of the Great Seminary in the north. In the present study, we summarise the first results that have expanded our knowledge of this outstanding historical site.
