The late Romanesque church in the center of the village, dedicated to the ice saint St. Pancras , dates from the 13th century. It has a rectangular nave with a square choir. The oldest walls are made of plastered rubble stones , sandstone and slate with square edges. The north portal and the north choir window are Gothic and date from the time it was built. In 1586 the south wall of the nave was renewed. In 1672 she received a baroque altarpiece, which was created by the Waldeck artist Josias Wolrat Brützel and which depicts The Last Judgment . (The signature of Meister Josias Wolrat Brützel on December 9th, 1692, is on the back of the altar )
