One of the oldest and most beautiful Gothic churches in the Csallóköz. Near the church, foundations of charnels from the 12-13th were excavated.

The church was built in the third quarter if the 13th century in late Romanesque style. It is likely that the church also functioned as a local fortification and in order to fulfill this role, side aisles and a tower were added to it allowing occupants to better see the approaching enemy as well as the threat of fire and flood. During the course of the centuries, the church was reconstructed several times. It was renovated in Gothic style in the 15th century, its frescoes date back to this time. At the end of the 18th century, it became a Reformed church when the new complex was built. The foundations of charnels from the 12-13th century were excavated near the church.

The Minim order or as they were called at first, the order of Jesus and Mary was founded by Saint Francis of Paola and the founding of the order was confirmed by Pope Sixtus IV in 1474. Joseph II dissolved the order in 1786. The monastery is called the Korona (Crown) today for the Korona Restaurant that operated out of the city-owned wing of the building until the 1960s.

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.
