history
The history of the Ahrensfeld church began before 1375. In the first mention of Ahrensfeld in 1375 in the land book of Charles IV as Arnsfelt, a church was already mentioned that was a simple hall built in the 14th century. After this previous building was demolished, the current church was built in 1768. Arched windows structure the elongated plastered building. A tower structure has been rising in the west since 1875/1876, the square floor plan of which merges into an octagon covered with a copper tip. During this time, the nave was extended by about seven meters to the east and the sacristy was added. The nave has a gable roof with beaver tail covering. Inside the building is the gallery built in the late 18th century on the west side.

Altarpiece
The altarpiece from the 16th century shows the crucifixion of Jesus ( Joh 19,17-29 LUT ) flanked by two other convicts.
