History

Hungarian-language messes are held in the church. The oldest church of Nagyszombat was originally built in the 13th century in Gothic style and was later reconstructed in Renaissance, then in Baroque style. A hospital belonged to the church in the Middle Ages. Above the entrance the statues of St. Elisabeth of Hungary, St. Helena and St. Barbara can be seen.
