The existence of the church is indirectly evidenced by the first written mention of Doľany from 1390. Originally a Gothic church dates from the 14th century. The church was fortified around a stone defensive wall, originally with shooting ranges. The defensive wall has been largely preserved to this day. The church has been rebuilt and expanded several times over the centuries. In 1664, the construction of a new, larger nave of the church began. In 1678, the nave of the church was raised and the original ceiling made of boards was replaced by a brick vault.

In the years 1832 - 1834, the church was again extended by a church tower. At that time, the construction was largely financed by Juraj Palkovič. During the last extension, the sacristy on the right side of the church was extended. The width of the church is 13.8 meters and the length is 36.4 meters.
