History

The church was already standing in 1290. In 1313 it was expanded in Gothic style. Its bronze bell was cast in 1436. The church was destroyed in 1648, but it was reconstructed in 1772 in Baroque style at the initiative of Baron Sztáray Imre. There was already a parish school in its vicinity in the 14th century.
