Summary/Abstract: The study presents the high-quality tiled stove of Esztergom Castle dating from 1595–1605, produced in a workshop in southern Germany. The stove tiles are decorated with various scenes from the life of Jesus enclosed in an architectural frame made in the Renaissance style. A comparison is drawn between the stove tile fragments from Esztergom and the stove tile fragments from Visegrád Castle dating from the same period, which also depict Biblical scenes.
