Church of St. Ondrej

The Baroque church is single-nave. On the front west side there is a three-storey tower with a stone entrance portal and a double convex tower. To the left of the altar is a separate room that was once reserved for the count (the so-called county room). At the entrance to the sacristy there is a memorial plaque commemorating St. Mass, which was served in the church in 1876 by Count František Ziči, Presbyter of Varadín. Of the original Baroque interior of the church, only the pulpit and wooden calvary have been preserved.

In the canonical visitation from 1713, a brick choir with a positive (organ) with four mutations is recorded. According to a canonical visitation on August 6, 1824, the choir was a commodity choir, accessible from inside the church (the Viennese company Wagner later built a spiral metal staircase). The choir has a resonant organ with seven mutations from the early 20th century. It was built by Karel Neuser from Nový Jičín.

During the First World War on September 12, 1917, two of the three original church bells were confiscated, thrown from the tower and taken away for military purposes. In 1925, there was a collection of new bells in the village. Each citizen who had land paid 10 crowns for one hunt. 48,000 crowns were collected. The new bells were cast in 1925 by Alojz Kurbel, a bell ringer from Trnava.

Below the church there are crypts in which members of the Zičiovce family, patrons of the church, were buried. From 1819, the patron saint of the church was František Ziči, at the beginning of the 20th century Jozef Ziči, then Keglevič and finally Klára Keglevičová, family. Zichi. The church is dedicated to St. Ondrej.
