Elizabeth Square
Elizabeth Square (Erzsébet tér) is south from Széchenyi street. South from it is the Avas hill with the gothic Protestant church on it. The church is the oldest building of Miskolc proper (15th century). The carousel from the belfry next to the church can be heard even in City Hall Square.
The Elizabeth Bath, the first Kossuth statue of the country and a fountain can be found on this square too.
The oldest building of the Ottó Herman Museum is also not very far. It houses the mineral collection of the museum.
