church
The two-story tower with round sound windows and oval windows has a late baroque hood. Its facade is simply structured by plaster strips. The nave has flat arch windows. This is followed by a choir closed on three sides and a low sacristy annex to the south . The interior of the single-nave nave is vaulted by a flat barrel and opened up to the slightly raised choir by a wide round arch as a triumphal arch . This has a narrow, barrel-arched front yoke and stitch caps. The organ gallery in the west is supported by a square vault. The sacristy has a barrel vault. A baroque trinity group from the time around 1700 comes from the former high altar. Other furnishings include late baroque figures of hll. Sebastian and Leonhard from 1720/1730, a figure of St. Wolfgang as well as a bell from 1860 and another that was cast by Ignaz Hilzer in 1848.
Rectory
The parsonage opposite the church is a building erected around 1780/1790 with a west facade in panel style . Its surrounding wall has a walk-through door under the curved gable.
A niche with a figure of St. Veronica with a handkerchief stands on the west side of the rectory. It was built around 1670 and was restored in 1955.
Between the rectory and the church there is a baroque Holy Trinity column - a mercy seat on a rectangular pillar - which is marked in the chronogram with "1713". It is made of granite and was moved from the Neuwirtshaus to its current location between the church and the rectory when the road was widened. It bears an inscription on the base.
