Location

On the main square stands the church, which guards the icon of the Tearful Virgin Mary. At the beginning of the design, the architects proposed small town characterized end walls and spatial arrangements ftting to the signifcant building and the miracle it represents. Finally, two buildings has been realized in the role of the missing end walls of the place. Both buildings turn to the square with a two-level arcade so people leaving the meeting rooms, the restaurant and the guest rooms can sit in the covered squares, always feeling the radiance of the church and the signifcant of their visit: the “miracle of Pócs”.
