Outside choir

The branch church originally belonged to the parish of Hausen , since the beginning of the 18th century to Rhaunen . The place is attested in 1331 as part of the High Court of Rhaunen. The church was given a new floor in 1621 and in 1719 the current building was erected, possibly using older remains.

Architecture and equipment

The plastered, quarry stone hall church with a three-sided choir closure is 9.80 m long, 7.30 m wide and 4 m high. On the north side there is a pointed arched door with the year 1719. It has four flat-arched windows and a slated roof turret with an eight-arched tip. Inside is a flat wooden barrel in a half-timbered construction with tie-rods. The pews are from the time the church was built.
