In the glass cabinet of the Altar of St. Klara you can see the Gothic wooden Statue of Madonna; 1350-70 In 1725, a Benedictine monk carried out the baroque conversion of the statue. The statue of Madonna, originally the throne, was transformed into a standing, dressable statue of grace. The Neo classicist main altar is made of stone, and there is a relic, a fragment of Jesus Christ's wooden cross. On the altar there is a carved sacrament holder with the image of Mary. It's an oval, a picture of mother of God bathed in the sun with Jesus on her arm. They are both Hungarian "magnats", i.e. Hungarian aristoctrate clothes, with silver crowns on their heads and rosary in their hands. Angels praying on both sides of the aisle kneel. The large altar image of 5.5 x 2.5 meters is a gift from a German officer.
