[edit] Historical monuments

Interesting ruins of a small Gothic church from the 13.-th century lie at the end of the village (by the old parsonage and the municipal authority office), near the banks of the Bodrog River. It probably became abandoned and perished in the 17.-th century. There were some attempts to rebuild the church in the second half of the 19.-th century, but these weren't successful and didn't alter the original appearance of the structure too much.
