Stop point - Und

The name of the settlement is probably a personal name, as one of our squatting leaders was called Ond. In the 16th century, the Croatian population who had moved here to escape the Turks settled here. The church dedicated to the tithes of St. Martin was built in 1750 on the site of a small stone church that had already stood in 1657, according to the bishop's visitation. The parish was the filiate of the church in Füle until 1659, and then of the church in Horpács until 1869, and is currently served by the parish priest of Horvátzsidány. The church, built in 1750 in simple baroque style, was supplemented with a new sanctuary in 1865. The church's furnishings include the pulpit, the four evangelists, the image of the Good Shepherd and the organ from the church in Locsmand. The altarpiece, probably from the 19th century, depicts Bishop Saint Martin, with the city walls of Amiens and the scene of the sharing of the mantle in the background. The mural on either side of the altar depicts scenes from the life of St Martin (St Martin sharing his cloak with a beggar, St Martin's dream, St Martin's death, Sulpicius Severus). He also painted the murals of St. Martin in the church of ólmod.

On the southern edge of Und, near the road to Zsira, there is a small chapel dedicated to St Martin, built in 2006.
