Main Square
The coronation column of the Virgin Mary can be found on the main square near valuable trees and a city well excavated in 1992. The square base of the monument surrounded by a fence features a statue at each corner, among them Saint Florian, Saint John of Nepomuk and Saint Sebastian. At the top of the column, we can see the Coronation of Mary. The year of construction: 1685. The Louis Seize style column is likely the result of a renovation carried out centuries later. The historical city well can also be found on Fő (Main) Square, it was discovered and restored in 1992. We can also see valuable trees on the square.

The church and monastery were built according to the plans of J.G. Altenburger. According to the documents from that time, the building was constructed between 1722 and 1778. The church and monastery, commissioned by the Minim Friars is an excellent example of late Baroque architecture. This is a single-aisle church with a sanctum enclosed with segmented arches.
