architecture

Rear view with east gable

The architectural style of the field stone church shows both medieval and modern elements. The building consists of a straight nave on the east side and a transverse rectangular west tower with a tower flag. The gable of the tower was built in the second half of the 16th century under the influence of the Renaissance. Originally the tower probably had a hipped roof , which was later replaced by a gable roof . Windows and doors are lined with bricks. The east gable of the church is modeled on that of the Holy Sepulcher Chapel. The windows below the east gable, the basket arches of the south choir windows and the pointed arch of the west portal are still influenced by the Gothic style.

Inside the church there is a wooden beam ceiling and a horseshoe gallery . In the 19th century the interior of the village church was completely renewed.

In front of the church there is a war memorial for the inhabitants who died in the First and Second World Wars, as well as a memorial plaque for three concentration camp prisoners who were shot on April 24, 1945 in Wulfersdorf.
