  Emblematic place in Kosice. The biggest cathedral in Slovakia. The view from the tower is very nice and you can mark what you want to see in the city from bird eye. The price is 2€ for adults and 1€ for children. Totally worth it for the experience and the view. If you are in Kosice this is a must.

  Looks good but there is no feeling like in other cathedrals Maybe due to the lack of burials in the church no tombstone or a like on the floors.

  The most attracting historical place in Košice... and easternmost gothic cathedral in Europe.

  It has a kind of understated elegance about it. The stained windows are very clear and vibrant in colour.

  The Cathedral of St Elisabeth (Slovak: Dóm svätej Alžbety Slovak pronunciation: [ˈdoːm ˈsʋetej ˈalʒbeti]; Hungarian: Szent Erzsébet-székesegyház, German: Dom der heiligen Elisabeth) is a Gothic cathedral in Košice. It is Slovakia's largest church and one of the easternmost Gothic cathedrals in Europe.[1] The record of the existence of Kassa (modern day Košice), dating from 1230, is connected with the existence of the rectory church. In the process of the settlement's transformation from a rural community into a town, all its periods of successes and failures have been reflected in St Elisabeth's Cathedral. According to historical and archaeological sources, the present-day cathedral was built on the place of the older temple which was consecrated to St Elisabeth of Hungary as well. It was referred to in the document of Pope Martin V in the year 1283 and in the letter of 1290, which stated that the bishop of Eger Andrew II exempted Košice parish from the dean's sphere of jurisdiction.[2][3] Wikipedia
