The local church in the settlement is dedicated to the Holy Trinity and belongs to the Parish of Lendava. It was built in 1728 by the Gludovácz family. When excavating for the foundations of the church, a wooden coffin was discovered containing the body of Mihael Hadik, who died fighting the Ottoman Turks in 1603. His mummy is now on display in the church.
