It is a single-nave church with a retracted, long rectangular choir tower from the early Gothic period. The upper part was built during a renovation with slate - clad half - timbering and a hipped roof . In the nave , two-zone early Gothic lancet windows on the east and south sides (today the south side is walled up) and a late Gothic arched curtain window with throats and strips illuminate the interior of the church.

The church is on the Jena - Thalbürgel church cycle path .
