Not far from the center of the village, the Reformed cemetery can be found on the main road heading towards Perbál.
The gravestones in the old part of the cemetery dating back to the first half of the 19th century constitute significant folk art treasures.
Differing versions of tulips and rosettes are especially common among the carved motifs. Researchers also took note of their significance, photographs taken in the local cemetery can be found in several ethnographical books, but gravestones originating from Tök can also be seen in the collection of the Open-Air Ethnographic Museum in Szentendre.
