Heart of Jesus Church in the village of Bene

Heart of Jesus church in the village of Bene looks a miracle against the backdrop of lush Carpathian nature. This white stone Protestant church with a bell tower and spire, topped with a star, immediately attracts attention. Even more interesting it is when you know a local legend that it is here to keep the secret of the heart of Jesus.

The name of the village is also very unusual. With Bene Italian translates as "good." This is very similar to the reality, the village is really good. The fact that live here, mainly ethnic ugortsy. Therefore, there is something to think about - how to Ugric village, once referred to as Dobrosillya, there was an Italian name.

Unfortunately, the more ancient wooden version of the church to the present day has not been preserved. The first mention of it is found more in 1333. That can be seen in its place was built a little later - in the late 14th century. Of great interest are its small windows massive towers that are very similar to loopholes and small lancet windows. Apparently, the temple also played defensive works.

At present, the renovated church of the Heart of Jesus, which the Hungarian master returned almost original Gothic style, is valid.
