Hanva parish and memorial plaque
Building, structure
In the center of one of the most beautifully situated villages in the area, with a valuable building complex, stands the Reformed parsonage, which is made attractive to thousands by the spiritual radiance of Tompa Mihály. The core of the building is the old parsonage, the construction date of which is unknown. The current parish was built as it is for Tompa Mihály by the former members of the Hanva-Lénártfalva-Csíz triple congregation. ; The "L"-shaped, ground-floor, hipped gable roof, now covered with tiles, and in good condition, built near the Reformed church, was probably built in the second half of the 18th century, originally for the purpose of a parish (parsonage). In the axis of its four-axis street facade, placed in the middle, a small black marble plaque informs visitors about the most significant period in the building's history: "Pastor Mihály Tompa lived in this house from 1852 to 1868". The courtyard side of the building wings is surrounded by a wide, columned porch. The segmental arched colonnades open onto a carefully arranged courtyard planted with pine trees, ornamental plants, and adorned with a rock garden. There is a floral decoration above the framed window openings of the main and side facades. ; In the summer of 1855, János Arany and his family spent a month in Hanva, in the hospitable home of Mihály Tompa. On the 150th anniversary of his colleague's visit, the Slovak Reformed Christian Church unveiled a commemorative plaque on the wall of the parish.
