Church of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary: the parish church, originally the 13th-century St Nicholas’s Church, was one of the largest church buildings of its time in Slovakia.
The oldest surviving object in the church is the baptismal font, and the three Baroque confessionals from the second half of the 18th century are also worth a look.
St Catherine’s Church: the single-nave church is covered by a late Gothic star vault that flows seamlessly from the nave into the presbytery, which makes it a rare type of church building in Slovakia. A 15th-century crucifix, a late Gothic statue of the Virgin Mary and a stone font have survived.
St Elizabeth’s Church: a single-nave Gothic building that was converted into a town gate when the town was fortified against the Ottomans. Besides the basic structure, the rib vault survives from the Gothic period. You can’t miss the little church on your way up to the centre.
The Evangelical Church on Town Hall Square is the only one built into a row of houses, because regulations at the time did not allow Evangelical churches to stand on their own. Inside, the church has an elliptical floor plan, extended to the sides by three tiers of galleries that are reminiscent of a theatre. The church also has a valuable Baroque organ.
