In 1927 Dr. Lajos Fülep, the famous arts historian, chose Zengővárkony as the centre of his Presbyterian pastoral work. The choirmaster working with him was János Császár. The blessed work of their duo was also enriching the universal Hungarian culture. They played an important role in that the ancient culture and popular traditions of the village are still there today, and that the collected relics can be transferred to the future generations.

In 1930 Lajos Fülep won a Baumgartner prize for his writing and critical works. From the money obtained with the prize he built and furnished a small library.

In 1947 he was invited to teach at the Péter Pázmány University of Budapest. He accepted the offer, moved away from the village, but always returned to the circles of his old congregation.

Lajos Fülep died in Budapest in 1970. On the first anniversary of his death the Management of the Baranya County Museum placed a memorial plaque on the wall of the rectory and arranged the library into a memorial hall. Written documentations and photographs show his life and work.
