Above a small flight of stairs is the west portal with an explosive gable above columns, in the top there is an inscription with the names of the builders. At the height of the facade gable is a walkway with a stone balustrade on consoles. And it is remarkable that at the foot of the stone pyramid helmet of the tower there is a second passage with a view of the city of Rust. The exterior of the parish church is simple.
