The first church in Hajdina was probably built in the 11th century. The present building dates from the 14th century (1390 - Gothic presbytery). The church has been rebuilt several times in the last centuries, the last intervention being in 1874. However, the Gothic ceiling with its star-grid ceiling and the tabernacle have been preserved until today. The alterations made at the end of the 19th century are in keeping with the original style. The neo-Gothic altar depicts Saint Martin sharing his cloak as a soldier. The stained glass window, made in 2000, depicts him as a bishop.
Not far from the church is a small roadside chapel, also dedicated to Martin.
