History

The Calvary was built between 1863 and 1868 in neo-Romanesque style at the initiative of the local priest Kaczvinszky Eduárd. It was financed from public contributions. Bishop Perger János of Kassa consecrated the church in 1869. It was renovated in 1920-21. The underground chapel of Mary Magdalena opens on the western side.
