    Ruins of Premontre Monastery and Church

    Premontrei kolostor és templom romjai

    Museum and lapidary. The construction of the Romanesque church started in 1220 as a part of a Premonstratensian monastery. It was the third consecutive church standing at the same site. The construction was completed in the 13th century. The church was a three-nave basilica; the cloister was attached to one of the sides. The church and the monastery were subsequently rebuilt in the Gothic style. The monastery was badly damaged during Turkish rule in Hungary. On June 28, 1736, the church collapsed as a result of an earthquake, and since then has been deserted.
