History of the village
In the village there is an evangelical classicist church from the end of the 18th century, in which there is a coffered hand-painted wooden ceiling with late Renaissance baroque-rustic ornamentation of stylized flowers and leaves. The organ with arcade ornamentation dates from 1739, the classicist bell tower with retarded elements is from the end of the 18th century. The bell is cast by B. Stephanides of Lučenec in 1813.
