Rimskokatolicky kostol Neposkvrneneho pocatia Panny Marie v Starom Smokovci
Kostol je postaveny vo vysokohorskom alpskom style so svojim charakteristickym hrazdenym murivom. Stity kostola su bohato vyrezavane a zdobene. Strecha tvori zaroven aj klenbu kostola. Architektura je komponovana v neogotickom style a svojou kompoziciou vynikajuco zapada do vysokohorskeho prostredia. Je opravdivym skvostom a patri medzi najkrajsie stavby nielen v Starom Smokovci, ale aj v celych Vysokych Tatrach. Kostol dal postavit spissky biskup Juraj Csaszka na ziadost arciknaznej Klotildy v roku 1888. Projekt vyhotovil architekt Gedeon Majunke zo Spisskej Soboty.
Slavnostna posviacka kostola sa uskutocnila 26. augusta 1888. O rok neskor boli instalovane do priecnej lode obraz Svatej rodiny malovany na skle a obraz sv. Juraja. Na vitrazi znazornujucej sv. Juraja je erb biskupa Juraja Csaszku. Povodna veza mala slabe zaklady tak sa naklonila. V roku 1929 v noci z 9. na 10. augusta udrel do kostola blesk a vazne ho poskodil. V roku 1932 bola veza demontovana a nad vchodom bol urobeny jednoduchy pristresok. V roku 1959 kostol rekonstruovali a bola postavena aj nova veza.
V roku 1977 sa zacali realizovat farebne vitraze, ktore zhotovil akademicky maliar Vincent Hloznik so svojou manzelkou a dcerou. Boli postupne az do roku 1979 osadene vsetky okna. Kostol je opravdivym stavebnym skvostom. Na oltari je prekrasna socha gotickej madony z Ruskinoviec, ktorej original je teraz v Narodnom muzeu v Bratislave. Faksimile madony vytvorila prof. Maria Spolocnikova z Kosic v roku 1983. Socha umelecky velmi zapada do architektury neogotickeho oltara, ktoreho tvori priam neoddelitelnu sucast. Celkova vyzdoba je komponovana tak, aby priamo zapadala do jednej z najvacsich turistických lokalit Slovenska, ktore navstevuje mnozstvo ludi z celeho sveta. Preto svatci znazorneni na vitrazach okien predstavuju univerzalnost celej Cirkvi. V roku 1981 bol postaveny v kostole novy pistalovy organ, ktory vybudoval majster z Brna, p. Holcapek so spolupracovnikmi.

Roman Catholic Church of the Immaculate Conception of the Virgin Mary in Stary Smokovec
The church was built in alpine style with chacteristic half-timbered stall. The architecture is composed in the neo-Gothic style.Bishop Juraj Csaszka built this church in 1888 according to project by Gedeon Majunke from Spisska Sobota. Interior wood accessories were created by G.A. Weisz company.
Dedication took place on 26th August 1888. Pictures "The Holy Family" , "St. George" and Bishop Juraj Császka's heraldry were installed a year later.All walls in church were painted with saturated colours (claret, blue), because windows were very clear and there was too much daylight in the church.
In 1977 a coloured window-pane was created by academic painter Vincent Hloznik with his wife and daughter. Then all walls were painted to white. That was another view on the wooden construction of the church´s interior that looks like a wood ring around the whole church.
Gotical Virgin statue from Ruskinovce village is located on altar. Original statue is now in Slovak national museum in Bratislava city. Madona's copy was made by Prof. Maria Spolocnikova from Kosice city in 1983.In 1981 there was built new organ by Mr. Holcapek (organ master from Brno, Czech republic) with his companion.
