The square church tower is connected to the south of the externally Romanesque , plastered hall church with retracted polygonal choir . The latter is built from rubble stones and tuff blocks and has a gable roof . The church is surrounded by a plastered, essentially late medieval , cemetery wall.

The organ from the Max Maerz workshop was in the Antdorf parish church of St. Peter and Paul until 1935 . When a new one was purchased there, it came to the Frauenrain church.
