Túrricse, Calvinist church

turricse

"The medieval village was a two-part settlement that probably existed in the 13th century. The only mention of the medieval church dates from 1500 and notes a building surrounded by a cemetery but without a tower. The church today is essentially medieval in form. It consists of a nave and a sanctuary closed on the east with five sides of an octagon. In the western wall there is a doorway with a stone frame. There are no medieval details inside the nave, and even the triumphal arch was torn down. In the northern wall of the sanctuary, the frame of the sacristy door survives. The church was built in a single period, at the very end of the 15th century. This is demonstrated by such details as the Renaissance elements of the frame of the essentially Gothic portal."
