Reformed Church, also Calvinist Church: It was built in 1323 in the Gothic style in an east-west direction. In 1332 there was a priest on site. The walls of the nave were reinforced with buttresses. The church has a protruding, octagonal facade tower with a Gothic robe portal. The choir is two-bay, has a 3/8 end and Gothic windows. The keystones are decorated with stars. There is a sacrament niche on the south wall and fresco fragments from the 14th century in the north wall. In the reveal of the triumphal arch is the bust of St. Ladislaus. In 1803 the windows were enlarged. In 1835 a landslide occurred in which the south wall collapsed. It was then rebuilt. In 1866 the church was renovated and the octagonal, neo-Gothic tower was added to the facade. After a renovation in 1912, the church was thoroughly renovated again in 2005.
