Máriapócs

Máriapócs is a small town in eastern Hungary, near Nyíregyháza. It is an important place for pilgrimage. It has a gorgeous Greek Catholic church, which houses the Weeping Black Madonna, an enormous and unbelievably ornate iconostasion that now takes pride of place above the altar. This icon is not the original, but a 19th century copy. The real one is kept in St. Stephen's Cathedral in Vienna.
