Livada - The Calvinist Church

According to the tradition, the church was built with the help of Zsuzsanna Bathory in the 15th century. The Gothic sanctuary was closed with three sides of an octagon, the windows still kept the mullions, and it has a wide vault with ribs. One of the key-stones reveals a coat of arms depicting an injured bird with an arrow at its neck, laid on a blooming branch. There is an inscription containing the year 1457 on the northern wall, beside the former door of the vestry. The upper part of the triumphal arch is made of profiled stone. The ceiling of the nave is flat; the windows preserve the gothic mullions. The arched frame of the main door is built of decorated profiled stone, and without a tympanum. The southern door was walled up, but the console and the profiled frame are still kept. The buttresses date from the mediaeval period. The pulpit is made of stone in copf style, in 1791. The belfry was built in front of the church, in 1811. The bell was made in 1935. (TSz).
