Altar of St. Joseph

On the next altar there is a triptych by Árpád Feszty with St. Joseph teaching the child Jesus, and the figures of the Apostles St. Peter and St. Paul. St. Peter holds the key to the gates of heaven, while the Apostle Paul holds a sword representing his martyrdom. The glass window shows St. Andrew and his cross. Legend has it that St. Andrew was crucified on a diagonal cross, at his own request, because he said he was not worthy to be crucified on a cross in the same shape as Christ's.
