On the east wall is a group of three windows consisting of a lancet triple window with a raised pointed arch, the walls of which are also edged with red brick. In the gable above, which is decorated with pinnacles , is an ox-eye . The choir is stabilized by two triple-stepped buttresses . On the south side is a rectangular extension that can be entered from the south through a wooden door. To the east of this is a pressed segment arch-shaped window, also on the east wall of the extension. The choir and annex are covered with beaver tail .
This is followed by the nave . It has a rectangular floor plan and three ogival panels that extend over the entire height of the facade. There are two pointed arched windows arranged in pairs with an overlying ox-eye. Below each of the windows there are two pressed-segment arched windows that are partially walled up. On the east wall in the gable are two ogival windows. The ship has a gable roof , which is also covered with beaver tail.
