Parish Church of St. Michael the Archangel

It was built after the demolition of the old church, which was no longer suitable. The sanctuary is oriented to the west. On the east side, the tower is topped by an octagonal tin pyramid with a Latin cross. The walls are plastered on the outside with white brisolite, on the left side of the sanctuary there is a sacristy. The square sanctuary has a depth of 6.7 meters and a width of 6.5 meters.

The ship is 15.6 m long and 9.5 m wide. The space under the choir measures 5.7 x 3.2 meters. The main altar representing the columnar Baroque architecture is dominated by a statue of St. Michal Archangel killing a dragon. Under the statue, a tabernacle (sanctuary) protruding towards the sanctuary, carved from soft wood, is decorated and gilded. Above the tabernacle is a platform for exposing the Altar Sacrament. There are statues of adoring angels on each side. Above the statue of the patron saint of the church, there is a carved canopy and an angel carrying a wooden cross on it. Between the two pairs of altar columns are statues of archangels. In front of the main altar is the sacrificial table according to the liturgical regulations ordered by II. Vatican Council. The ceremonies are now being processed on him. There is an erect cross in front of the sacrificial table. Next to the entrance to the sacristy there are bells with a ribbon on the wall. At the beginning of the Mass, they signal to the organist that the priest is entering and can begin to play. On the left base of the triumphal arch (when looking at the altar) is the pulpit, next to it a perpetual light hung on a metal console, on the right base of the arch is the altar of the Divine Heart. There are two neo-Gothic side altars in the church. The couple Terézia and Jozef Danišovičovci deserved their position. At the left wall of the nave is the altar of the Blessed Virgin Mary, at the right the altar of St. Joseph. The glazing of the windows is made of colored tables. The sanctuary is vaulted with a Czech pancake, the nave of two fields of the Prussian joint. The subtle paint is a combination of pale ocher with white.

The subtle paint is a combination of pale ocher with white. At the top of the triumphal arch is painted the Lamb of God (Agnus Dei). This drawing divides the white inscription:

HOPE I CALLED THE WORLD.

Above the main entrance portal is carved the year of construction of the church - 1787. The ground floor of the tower, ie the space under the choir has a staircase leading to the choir and a bell post in the right part, in the left is the Prison of Christ. At the entrance, we see a marble plaque on the right with a legend: Out of love for Christ the King, František Spačinský and his wife, Filip Černý and his wife made this sacrifice in 1929. There is a label on the organ with the inscription: OP 178 (EM. Š. PETR) PRAGUE PROFITS. The original owner was the priest Dr. Dobroslav Orel, who was taken away from his separated brothers (heretics). Alexander Danišovič brought him to Boleráz. At the primaries of Stanislav Danišovič (Nov. 1922), prof. Dr. Orel.

The wooden benches in the interior of the church were made in the 1930s by carpenter Michal Valášek and Martin Pincek, the confessional was made by Emil Černý under the influence of the parish priest Ladislav Gálik, the paving in the nave was laid under the current dean-parish priest Dušan Jurák. Iron stairs to the choir and the construction of a window sill on the choir were made by Ján Janec. The wooden railing of the choir is the work of carpenter Šotník from Zavár. To the right of the main entrance rises a wooden mission cross.
