History

The founding stone of the Lutheran church was laid on May 19, 1636 with the permission of the emperor. The construction was completed in 1648. In 1672 the military ordered by Archbishop Szelepcsényi György occupied the church by force against the protest of the Lutheran burghers of Pozsony. Afterwards the church was given to the Jesuits.
