history

A church was mentioned in a document in 1143. Around 1710 to 1714 the vaults were redesigned in Baroque style and chapels were added to the nave. In 1934 another yoke was added to the nave in the west.

architecture

A west yoke was added to the late Gothic single-nave four-bay nave in 1934. The equally wide two-bay choir closes with a three-eighths ending. In the nave and choir, the Gothic vault ribs were removed and stuccoed around 1710 to 1714. The tower in the southern choir corner has a Gothic tower hall with a ribbed vault and a baroque eight-sided tower with an onion and a lantern. There are chapel extensions to the nave.

Furnishing

The high altar and the side altars in baroque forms were created in 1904 and were revised in 1934.
