St. Michael's Provostship Church of the Premonstratensians was built using a pure Roman Style in the 12th century. During the Turkish Wars in 1541, the building was completely destroyed. The ruins were excavated in 1923 and the little church was reconstructed in 1930-31. The bell was found in 1914, among the roots of a walnut tree unrooted by a storm. It is one of the oldest bells in Hungary. It was made by Master John Strous in the 15th century.
