Point of interest - Hidegség - St Andrew the Apostle Church

The first written record of the village dates back to 1274. The Romanesque rotunda was probably built in the 12th century and its frescoes were painted around 1250. It was enlarged around 1660. It was struck by lightning in 1713 and rebuilt in Baroque style, with a tower added in 1748. In 1889 a neo-Romanesque façade was added, which was removed in 1938. It was restored in 1971-1972.

The iron bell, placed on the roof of the church above the entrance to the new part of the church, traditionally commemorates the fact that the inhabitants of the village were evangelical from the end of the 16th century to the middle of the 17th century.
