architecture
The elongated hall has a polygonal choir and a tower upper floor, which was built in the core after 1520. The nave was extended in 1762 and 1910/11. The cylindrical tower end, on the ring of which the tower spire sits, is unusual.
Furnishing
The building with mirrored ceiling and cove as well as a curved triumphal arch has high-quality stucco and fresco decoration , which was carried out around 1763 by Franz Martin Kuen . The triumphal arch is provided with the alliance coat of arms of the Barons von Rechberg , the patron saint at the time , and a chronogram .
The two side altars, the pulpit and the font , all from around 1670/80, were acquired around 1910. The high altar was created in 1910 by Georg Saumweber.
