Ruins of church in Somogyvámos, Medieval church ruins in Somogyvámos, Hungary

The brick ruins of this Gothic church feature an octagonal tower and fragments of the eastern chapel wall standing in cultivated fields.

The church site, documented in 1229 as property of Székesfehérvár chapter, marks the location of an Árpád-era village called Csopak.

The church architecture suggests connections to the Order of Saint John, which established similar structures across medieval Hungary during the 13th century.
