Above the outer door of the sacristy, a clearly legible Latin inscription engraved on a stone tablet reminds us to this day: STEPHANO APOSTOLICO I-MO REGI HUNGARIE GD ADAMUS ONORY CUM CONSORTE SUA CATHARINA BEDY PO. DS QUE ANNO DNI 1682. (It was built by Adam Onory and his wife Katarína Bedy in 1682 for St. Stephen I, King of Hungary).
