Szenttamás (Esztergom)

Szenttamás (meaning: "Saint Thomas" (for Saint Thomas Becket) is the eastern part of the city of Esztergom in Hungary, on the right bank of the river Danube. It was a separate village until 1895, when it was merged with the "Royal Esztergom" as 2nd district, along with neighboring Víziváros and Szentgyörgymező. It's located on the Szent Tamás Hill.
