The 15th century Holy Trinity Church was built by the Neuhaus family and was consecrated in 1475. The church stands behind a wall that the local population built to protect itself from Turkish attacks in the 16th century. The interior is decorated with Gothic frescoes by the artist John of Kastav (Johannes de Castua), the most famous being Danse Macabre (Dance of Death), and completed in 1490.
