It has been four years since the memorial plaque of Cardinal Mindszenty’s visit to Cologne was inaugurated in the crypt of the cathedral. This time – 27th of May – we were in the chapel of the Cathedral to pray together for the beatification of our last prince-primate.
As the last point of commemoration, the memorial plaque set up in the crypt, where the Hungarian Consulate General in Düsseldorf, the Hungarian Catholic Pastoral Church and the Order of Vitéz placed their wreaths.
