history

At the beginning there was a Romanesque hall building as an apse hall. The Gothic choir was built in the 14th century. In the 17th century the nave was given a flat ceiling and a wooden organ gallery, the windows were partly rounded in baroque style. In 1999, during the interior restoration, the foundations of the Romanesque semicircular apis with an altar foundation were excavated.

architecture

The simple Romanesque nave with a former semicircular apse received a Gothic choir with a five- eighth end in the 14th century . The church building is under a gable roof and has a roof turret on the ridge on the western front.

The interior of the church shows itself in the nave with a flat ceiling and in the choir with a groin vault. Some of the windows are rounded in baroque style. The organ gallery is made of wood.
