History and equipment

The nave with its angled barrel vault has a dark-colored ceiling made of wooden strips. The choir is covered by a delicate reticulated vault . The Marian paintings on the choir arches were part of the ornamentation of the side altars, which were removed with the adoption of the Reformation . The organ was installed in 1983.

The one with Saas in Prättigau was resolved again, and from 2010 to 2012 a new one with St. Antönien was entered into.
