The settlement received its town privileges in 1340 from Charles I of Hungary, establishing equal rights for both local residents and German settlers.

The Roman Catholic Church of Saint Andrew demonstrates the architectural evolution from Gothic foundations through Renaissance and Baroque modifications over centuries.
