History

Most of the art historical research puts the construction of the chapel in the 13th century, making it the oldest architectural monument in Székelyudvarhely. It was first mentioned in 1662. Its coffered ceiling was originally made in 1677, and the one you see today is a copy. The original coffered ceiling was removed in 1903. Its protective wall was probably built in 1771. The hermitage was built in 1830 with a donation from Bishop Rudnay Sándor.
