Attractions

  • Filial church of St. Laurentius. A previous church from around 1200 was followed by the current late Gothic brick shell from the 15th century. In the Baroque period, the entire church was raised by about one meter with bricks and the nave was newly vaulted. In the meantime, the church had the patronage of St. Peter and St. Paul and only since the second half of the 19th century was it again St. Laurentius. In 1905, instead of the previous ridge, the church received the tower and a vestibule that is present today. In the chancel there are Gothic frescoes, the high altar and the two corner altars are neo-Gothic.
