St Stephen’s Chapel

The chapel in the cemetery is described by the literature as an early medieval building. Its oldest parts are the Romanesque semi-circular sanctuary apse and the vaulted small windows. It was probably built in the 15th century with a Gothic style buttressed nave and a small sixsided tower with lancet windows. The chapel’s present form is the result of an 18th-century Baroque reconstruction. The coat-of-arms of the Solymossy family, the former owner of Nagylózs, can be found above the lancet door. There are several beautifully carved old (18th-19th-century) tombstones in the cemetery around the chapel.
