The tower basement of the choir tower church dates from the Romanesque period. In 1756 the tower was raised and the nave was added. The pulpit altar was assembled in 1713 from two late medieval altar retables from the 16th century. In 2007 the church tower was repaired with funds from the Foundation for the Preservation of Church Monuments in Germany .
