The first church of Lompirt locality was built in the second half of XV century and in 1739, together with the formation of reformed community it became reformed. In the big fire in 1777 half of the village burnt and the church too, but during the same year it was rebuilt. The 172 cassettes and the carved pulpit were made by the brothers Asztalos Budai Sámuel and András.

The cassettes decorated with floral motifs and strange figures were and still remain message bearer. Besides the amusing drawings if we are armed with enough seriousness and knowledge we can elucidate the arrangement's logic and cassettes' decoration. Let's not forget, the cassettes were made in 1778 when the only experts in writing were the priest and the cantor but they haven't seen exotic animals as well! The cassettes with aspects from popular belief are extremely valuable. We can see here the "good and evil luck's wheel", "the women's luck" and "man eater bird"

The functional organ was built in 1842 by an unknown dab.

In 1934 the church's shingle roof was changed with an iron one. Initially in the big tower of 29 m there were 2 bells. The big one was taken during the First World War and was replaced after 14 years.
