The slender steeple is a roof turret , its upper floor consists of truss , the spire is as octagonal tail dome running. From the previous building, walled-in, but heavily weathered gravestones can still be seen in the east wall . They date from around 1620. The font and a silver chalice also date from the 16th century.

The church tower got a new copper roof in 1988. The organ is located diagonally above the altar and the pulpit, and the previous church is said to have already had a church organ.
