The Namestovo church was first built somewhere between 1655 to 1658 in Námestovo in what is now Slovakia. This was a chapel which now serves as an entry to the church. Later it was rebuilt and enlarged several times, after a great fire at the end of the 18th century. The church's first pastor was Ján Neborovini. Later Štefan Boczko ascended to this post. He was engaged in Piko's rebellion and he fled before punishment to Transylvania. In 1672, for the first time, Namestovo's pastorate was occupied by a catholic priest, Róbert Chmeľovsky, who was supported by Jesuit priests from Lokca's pastorage. In 1706 a Protestant pastor named Jastrabini Fabianus occupied the church. The last Protestant pastor in Namestovo was Juraj Pixiades.
