The Roman-Catholic Church of the Holy
Spirit is located in M. Sch. Trnavského Street. The building's maintenance has
been sponsored by the Roman Catholic Church, mostly from fundraising and
financial donations from churchgoers. One million Slovak Crowns was given by
the municipal government. The foundations of the building were sanctified by
Pope John Paul II during his visit to Slovakia in Sastin. The church has an
unorthodox design with an unconventional roof shape; it is 30 meters high and
has the shape of a circle. It includes both the temple and the pastor's sector.
It was designed by Ing. Arch. Ľudovít Režuch and Ing. Arch. Marián Lupták, who
also designed the interior. The capacity of the church is about 600 people. The
sound distribution quality is high due to the building design, as well as the
arrangement of loud-speakers.
The Chapel of Virgin Mary is located in
Old Dubravka together with the cave of Our Lady of Lourdes. The chapel probably
started as an unfinished baroque church. It features a late-baroque main altar
with a picture of Virgin Mary held by angels and a side altar. It also includes
statues of Saint Joseph and Virgin Mary. Even before the construction of the
artificial cave, it was a minor pilgrimage site, one out of four most important
for local Croats.
