Saint Mary of Help Church, Doroslovo

Saint Mary of Help Church is a Catholic shrine featuring two towers and an outdoor altar within the Roman Catholic Diocese of Subotica. Planted trees and gardens shape the grounds, creating space for religious gatherings and prayer.

A chapel was first built on this site in 1796 and underwent reconstruction in 1825 before the current structure was completed in 1875. The location has remained a religious site for over two centuries.

The church serves as a pilgrimage destination where visitors come to experience the sacred spring called Szentkút. People leave candles and personal items as expressions of their faith and hopes.

The church and grounds are accessible on foot throughout the year for visitors. It is helpful to wear sturdy shoes as some pathways on the site may be unpaved or uneven.

In the 1790s, a blind man reportedly regained his sight after using water from the spring, an event that gave the site profound spiritual meaning. This account spread and attracted pilgrims from across the region.
