Building description
The choir is straight and has not moved in. In the lower, plastered area are two narrow, rectangular windows. Above it extends the gable made of half-timbered construction, in which two interconnected doors are embedded in the middle. There is a larger window on the north side of the ship and two rectangular windows on the south side. In between, on the south side, there is an arched portal through which the building can be entered. There are no openings on the western wall. The west gable was also made of half-timbered with a centrally mounted door. Below is a cantilever beam from which a bell from the mid-18th century hangs. This construction is protected by a simple gable roof .
Furnishing
The pulpit altar from the first half of the 19th century was dismantled. The pulpit is semicircular and decorated with applied, ornamental carvings. The altar enclosure is also semicircular with slender balusters . The bench stalls probably come from the same period. The church also features a pair of carved candlesticks, which were made in the second half of the 18th century. The inside of the structure is flat covered.
To the west of the building is a boulder with the inscription Our Heroes / 1914–1918 commemorates the fallen from the First World War .
