Building
The three-sided, plastered hall church was built around 1500. The transverse rectangular west tower of the building is essentially late Romanesque and is dated to the 13th century. The top of the tower was built in the first half of the 19th century and restored in 1925. The tower hall is open to the nave in two pressed pointed arcades on profiled spars.
inner space
In the nave there is a painted beam ceiling. On the parapets of the horseshoe gallery from 1738, scenes from the Old Testament are painted. The pulpit altar with its side passages dates back to around 1700. The adjoining patron's box also dates from this period . The painted representations of Christ and the evangelists in study rooms can be seen on the basket of the pulpit . In the predella the Lord's Supper can be seen, in the cheeks the Annunciation and the baptism of Christ - and in the essay the Ascension. On the sides of the pulpit are the remains of a winged altar from the beginning of the 16th century. On the right are carved figures depicting the Evangelist John between Peter and Paul. On the left the fragment of an Adoration of the Child between Saints Catherine and Barbara. The baptism of the church was made from 1719 sandstone. In the tower hall there are four sandstone tombstones from the 18th century. Relief depictions of the deceased in front of the crucifix can be seen on two gravestones.
