architecture
The outside of the church has a narrow nave with baroque arched windows. A gothic pointed arch portal is walled up on the north side, above it a tape with illegible inscription. The very little retracted choir with a five-eighth closure has strong buttresses and narrow early Gothic pointed arched windows. On the north side there is a baroque chapel built around 1700 with a warped triangle which integrates a former buttress of the main choir, the facade of the chapel is structured with pilaster strips and has flat arched windows with lattices. A baroque chapel is built on the south side with another chapel in the same line, also with arched windows. The presented three-storey west tower from the 20th century has arched sound windows and a pointed helmet.
The church is surrounded by a cemetery. At the cemetery there is a group of figures of the Crucifixion from 1928.
The interior of the church shows a three-bay nave with cross vaults on pilasters. The three-arched organ loft is arched with a cross ridge. The slightly drawn-in one-bay square choir with a five-eighth closure has a ribbed vault on ornamented consoles, a console with a grotesque animal mask, and a rosette keystone. The Gothic sacraments niche has a two-part clover leaf arch. The two-bay north chapel with groin vaults on double chords on pillars with double stripes in front has an apse conche. The south chapel has a groin vault. The sacristy has a flat ceiling and above it an oratory and flat-arched bezel windows.
