Having no church, Catholic services were held in the Greek Catholic Church. Later they built a wooden church. The increase in the number of believers led to the construction of a larger church, finished in 1875. It was a towerless church. 21 years later, in 1896 the church was damaged in a fire. Renewal works were funded by Bishop Meszlényi Gyula. The towers were built in 1913.
