town of Hungary, capital of a county of the same name, on the Csargo, in a marshy region, near the west border of the morass of Sarret, 38 miles S.S.W. of Buda, and about 100 S.E. of Vienna. It is a large and ancient town, with ill paved, irregular streets. The principal building is the Cathedral of St Mary, formerly the place of coronation and burial for the kings of Hungary, and containing many of their tombs. This building is handsome and richly decorated. There are here five other churches, an episcopal palace, county buildings, gymnasium, military academy, and other schools, hospital and theatre. Woollen and linen cloth, hardware, and other articles are manufactured here; and there is an active trade in wine and fruit. On account of the scarcity of good water, several Artesian wells have been bored here. Pop. (1851) 14,971.
