The wide gallery has a bulging parapet. The square, flat-closing choir is vaulted with a square. To the north of the choir is an oratorio in the Rococo style.

The side altars on the left and right in the triumphal arch are wall altars with a rocaille frame and reredos with medallions and show Anna Maria teaching on the left and Johannes Nepomuk in the glory on the right , both by Stephan Schaller (1770). The side altar in the left transverse arm as a wall altar with pilasters placed over a corner and a high top with rich rococo design bears the figure group Holy Family in the canopy-crowned central niche and the figures Joachim and Anna to the side.
