History

It was originally built for the Lutherans between 1655 and 1659 in Renaissance style. It was later reconstructed in Baroque style. In 1674 the Catholics acquired the church thanks to Archbishop Szelepcsényi György of Esztergom. The Jesuits acquired it in 1753. In 1773 the Jesuit Order was dissolved by the pope and the parish took over the church.
