History

The foundation stone was laid on 15 March 1905 and inaugurated in September 1906. The neo-Gothic Lutheran church was designed by Szántay Lajos in Main Street (formerly known as Andrássy Avenue). The altar and the pulpit are the work of the master altar builder Örr György from Kassa. The stained glass windows were made by Palka József, a glass painter from Budapest.
