Reformed Church Ozun

The Church was surrounded by an oval wall built in the 15^th century which has lived quite a few hardships over the centuries. In the time of Gábor Báthory it was under the siege of András Géczi’s troops, later occupied by the troops of Mihály Weiss judge of Brasso. In 1704 it was registered that in “14 April – our beautifully monumental church and village was burnt.” In 1706 the Uzon Castle is under the control of the Labances, and therefore it is taken under siege by the Kuruces. Later, “when population started to return home, they began building the church”. After destroyed by earthquake, the tower was rebuilt between 1842 and 1844 with a baroque style roof. The church was demolished in 1819. Ten years later there stood a new one in its place. The remains and relics of the old church could be surfaced with a new renovation. The fortress was demolished in 1901. Meanwhile the bench-fronts with flower ornaments were repainted. Their age, according to professionals, is from the same time as the ones from Zabola (1772) and Mátisfalva (1802).
