The verschieferte roof tower to the west with squat dome with a lantern crowned. A hollow vault spans the simple hall ; it is surrounded by two-storey three-sided galleries and an organ gallery above the apse . The rural depiction of the Last Supper on the ceiling above the chancel, created by TG Fabarius from Schmalkalden in 1747, is the last remnant of a once existing wall and ceiling painting . The originally rich baroque furnishings were partially removed during the restoration in 1905. The table altar on five stone balusters from 1723 has been preserved in its original state. The base, the shaft and the basin of the baptismal font , also from 1723, are made of sandstone.
Five colored small oval glass panes from 1624 from the previous building - now in the window on the south side - depict the creation of Eve, Jacob's dream , the expulsion from paradise , the crucifixion and resurrection of Christ .
