Most of the funds came from Adolf Laky earning him a bust in the church garden. The church has a facade covered in Zsolnay majolica tiles bearing designs that echo Hungarian folk art. Folk art motifs are repeated throughout the church. The stained glass windows were designed by Miksa Róth. The floor plan is in the shape of a Greek Cross, with galleries on three sides and an organ over the altar.[2]

The church's longtime presbyter was Miklós Lukáts, who served beginning in 1971.[3]
