The hall church with three bays is crowned by a mighty, slated gable rider, this was put on in 1644. The interior was redesigned in 1909, since then the tower hall has served as a choir . The plastered building is structured in the west wall by five-pass windows , otherwise by pointed arch windows. In the side walls of the low choir hall with domical vaults there are round-arched niches. A six-part, in the eastern yoke a four-part, ribbed vault was drawn into the nave . The keystones are decorated with relief representations. The wooden inlay gallery was installed after 1909.
