Description: |
In 990 there was already a nunnery in Vörösberény. In the 1600s, the Jesuits settled and built the baroque style church and monastery. The church of Saint Ignatius of Loyola was consecrated in 1779. The church currently functions as a parish church. This church is a fine example of Hungarian Baroque architecture. The church is decorated with frescoes by the Swiss Bucher (Pucher) Ferenc Xavér. For a long time there was no organ in the church, only a harmonium. In 1974, a small neo-baroque organ was built based on Kilián Szigeti's plans. This organ was replaced in 2019 by the Silbermann-style, two-manual organ of the Paulus Orgona manufactory. The organ was built based on the designs of Dávid Homolya, and Dávid Homolya also performed the intoning of the organ. In recent years, the Paulus manufactory has produced several authentic Renaissance and Baroque organs, a fine example of which is the organ of the Catholic church in Vöröberény. Our offer also includes the Renaissance-style Paulus organ of Szár. |
