History

It was a Romanesque church that was extended between 1484 and 1518 in Gothic style. It was modified in Renaissance style in 1523 (southern main entrance, pulpit, winged altar). Its original Gothic main altar was made by Master Lőcsei Pál and is now in the Hungarian National Museum in Budapest.
