Co-Cathedral of Poprad

The wooden joint church of Kežmarok is a 17th century Protestant church. The bricks, prohibited in the original construction, were added to the building during the last repair in the 1990s. As part of the wooden churches of the Slovak Carpathians, the building is a UNESCO World Heritage Site.

In 1668, Father Reggiani acquired the Chapel of the Assumption of the Virgin Mary in Spissku Stvrtok for his order and the house in the village, which belonged to the robe, for the brothers' residence. According to a document written in the Spis Chapter on March 10, 1668, the nobles donated two plots of land to the monks: one between the cemetery of the church in Spissku Stvrtek and the house of his subject Vavrinec Filek, suitable for building a monastery, the other farmland together with Juraj Sofranek , watercourses, etc.

The first church is mentioned in chronicles as early as 1247. However, controversy arose around this date. The first construction of a tavern on Marianska hora was completed quickly, just two years after the founding of the new Levoca. The church above the town was not suitable for space or construction. In 1311, the parish priest Henrich de Leucz (from Levoca) was responsible for the repair of the pilgrimage church. Leucz's successor, Parish Solomon, continued his predecessor's efforts for eleven years. The statue or image of the gracious Virgin Mary was already in the first church. According to the surviving record of the visitation of the Levoca parish from 1702, the birth of respect for the Mother of God of Levoca dates back to the first half of the 14th century.
