Statue of Saint John of Nepomuk

Archival documents attest to the fact that statue of Saint John of Nepomuk was already in its present place in 1780, in what was once the upper border of the village. It once ornamented the side of the road leading to Moson. Since 1971 it can be found built along with its base into a wall of the house at Hunyadi Street 1. The approximately 2,5-meter high statue’s brown base includes a relief of the Holy Ghost in the form of a dove and on the central portion above it, Baroque swirls, acanthus leaves and a coat of arms, also in Baroque style, emblazoned with text that is no longer legible.

Saint Anthony's Chapel

The chapel that can be seen today was reborn in 1891, its site had been home to a small church dedicated to Saint Anthony of Padua, the patron saint of the poor and oppressed for centuries prior. The altar of the building consecrated on October 18, 1891, features a statue of the Virgin Mary of Lourdes and a stained glass window with Saint Anthony holding the baby Jesus can be seen above the altar. The chapel vestibule features the stations of the cross created in 1897 with a donation given by Mária Simon. The eight small chambers are ornamented with reliefs made in Tyrol. The group of pinewood statues was restored in 1977 by Pál Molnár from Győr and during the full renovation of the chapel, in the winter of 2003-2004, by Lívia Bujtásné Völgyesi and László Bujtás.

Pauline Monastery

The building which rests upon a medieval base according to tradition was once a Pauline monastery. In the 17th century, the Jesuits gained ownership of it and they later had it reconstructed in Baroque style around 1700. The building gained its present form in a 1766 renovation.
