Lekenye Reformed Church
Building, structure
The first surviving written source about the 12th century Hungarian village is only mentioned a century later. ; Its medieval Reformed church was built in the second half of the 15th century, in Gothic style. It was a relatively small building with an east-facing axis, a single nave, without a tower. Its rectangular ground plan, a saddle roof, and a shingle-covered nave are joined to the east by a very depressed semicircular triumphal arch, a rare, polygonal-closed sanctuary, slightly narrower than the nave. ; The church was heavily rebuilt at the end of the 18th century, and its sanctuary was re-vaulted. A bell tower was probably built on the southern wall of the church, in front of the southern entrance, at the same time. Its lower part, up to the crown level of the church, is bricked, the open bell level above it, and the pyramid-shaped, shingle-covered tower helmet are made of wood. The windows of the church were probably also altered in the 18th century, so only the mass of the building's exterior preserves the medieval character. The church was covered inside with a wooden, coffered, painted flat ceiling, some of whose remaining coffered ceilings can be seen on the church wall.
