The Roman-Catholic church of St. Lukas the evangelist, with retarding late-classicistic and romantic elements was built in 1872. In 1911 it still wasn't consecrated. The chronostikon on the tower says that the building was restored in 1983. It is a one-ship building with narrow closure of presbyterium, tower build in the shield frontispiece and built out sacristy. In the sixties of the 20. century the ceilings and vaults were completed with other mural paintings. Above the entry to the ship there is a organ chorus held by two cast-iron pillars and a forged rail. On the main altar from 1873 there is a painting of St. Lukas from 1873, on the sides there are statues of Jesus's and Mary's heart. The side altar of the Lurd Panna Maria comes from the times when the church was built. Pulpit with baldachin and window sill with relief decoration comes from the time when the church was built. In 1875 Pavol Szabo gave the church the font of red marble. The is also a red wooden relief of Pieta and a wooden cross with corpus here. The parish achieved the first organ in 1873 from the collection of parishioners and doles, today's organ comes from 1896 from the doles of people of Dulovce living in America.
