description

Various construction work was carried out on the small, late-medieval hall church in 1675 and 1757. Among other things, the nave was given a mansard roof and the choir tower was given an eight-sided slated essay with a French dome on which an open lantern is enthroned. In 1800, 1860 and 1904 the church was renovated. The last renovation in 1965 characterizes the current building. The nave and the retracted choir are spanned inside with flat ceilings . The parapets of the single-storey galleries received depictions of the apostles and evangelists in 1965 .
