Building description
The core of the late Gothic , Romanesque choir tower church dates from the 11th century. A mighty, six-story tower from the 12th century stands between the nave and the choir. In 1524 it was rebuilt from the fifth floor and in 1886 it was given a neo-Gothic pointed helmet. The oldest bell dates from the 14th century, and another was cast in 1661. A Gothic sacristy is attached to the south side of the tower and a Gothic chapel is attached to the north side. Flat polygonal buttresses support the choir. The late Gothic south portal with a grooved keel arch has a door with late Gothic iron fittings and a key catch. To the left of it is a Last Judgment fresco from the first quarter of the 16th century, to the right of it the grave slab of Pastor Christoph Zehner († 1524). A Roman grave inscription for C. Iulius is immured on the northern outer wall. On the south side there is a top of a Roman altar and a pine cone from a grave altar.
In the four-bay nave, a ribbed vault from the 15th century rises above drawn buttresses. The star-arched, late Gothic west gallery was provided with a baroque parapet. The organ, built in the first half of the 18th century, was expanded in 1801 by adding a positive parapet. The Romanesque tower yoke has a Gothic pointed barrel with stitch caps . A star-ribbed vault rests on broad wall templates with round services above the one-bay, late Gothic choir with a five-eighth closure, which is slightly shifted in the axis . There is a vaulted leg chamber under the choir . The sacristy is vaulted with ribs, the two-bay, north side chapel is vaulted with groin.
