The church has a pulpit from 1700 and an old altar that was restored around 1846 . The organ on the west gallery was built in 1848 by Wilhelm Baer in Niemegk and restored in 1935 by the Schuke company from Potsdam . During a restoration in 1914, medieval wall paintings were discovered on the north and south pores depicting the entry of Christ into Jerusalem .
