Lutheran Church
The evangelist church int he courtyard of Gyöngyös street No.26 was built in 1783 in late baroque style. It forms an organic unit with the surrounding evangelist buildings.

Lutheran Church

It is one of the nicest evangelist church int he region, that creates an organic order with the later built neighbouring institutions: the convent house, the liceum, the vicarage, the primary school and the bell-tower.

The separate bell-tower of the church was built later, in 1930, and this is the only part of the church that can be seen from the street.

According to the rules at the time of the bulding in 1783, the church was not allowed to be built onto the street and couldn’t have tower. This lends an intimate athmosphere today to the church in the church garden. The building is a charachteristic barn-church, where a wooden gallery increases the capacity. The church furnishing is traditional, with a late baroque altar-piace and the organ prepared in 1784.

As time passed, a real evangelist centre developed here. Vicarage, primary school, secondory school, community rooms and hospital was built around. The bell-tower erected in 1930 is the first realized element of the then planned new, larger evangelsit church. The great economic crisis blasted the hopes, only the elementary school bulding (today kindergarden) was built fully.
