View from the southeast

Today's village church is a baroque hall church. The nave is plastered with yellow paint. It has a small base in the same plaster and paint. The west portal is simple and single-wing. Above this there is a small segment-arched window, which is framed smooth and slightly profiled. The border has a keystone . The outer ones don't run around the corners. Four large, segment-arched, six-part lattice windows were incorporated on the north side. Plain lead glass windows (rectangular single panes of glass ) were incorporated into these . The windows are framed like the one above the west portal. The row of four windows is extended to the east by an identically designed window . There are further windows in the east and south walls. At the eastern end of the south wall, in contrast to the northern outer wall, there is a small extension for the sacristy with a mansard roof , a small door to the east and a small window to the south. Vertical decorative elements of the outer facade are several pilaster strips . A multi-tiered, all-round eaves cornice adorns the horizontal . The roof is covered with beaver tails . It is hipped to the east . There is a bat dormer to the north . A gable wall in the west merges continuously into the church tower. In the gable wall there is a window for the staircase to the tower. Furthermore, the existing pilaster strips to the side of the west portal continue above the eaves.

The church tower is conspicuously made entirely of wood. It has a square floor plan, corner pilasters and wooden sound openings for the bells . It is covered with a slate-covered tail hood on which there is also a tower helmet . Both have an octagonal floor plan. A tower ball and weather vane are placed on the top of the helmet .
