Fő utca used to be one of Buda's most important streets (the translation is "Main Street"), bustling with commerce from as early as the 18th century. The area is called Watertown; following the 1686 siege of Buda, mostly German merchants and other privileged citizens moved here, building Baroque houses and courtyards. The Servite Church on Szervita tér, facing the Danube has a beautiful, eclectic-style roof.
